"Revenue" refers to money or funding. "Treasury" also has to do with money and funds. So you maybe could have figured out just by those two words that the Internal <u>Revenue</u> Service (IRS) is a part of the Department of the <u>Treasury</u>.
The Department of the Treasury website explains the history of the IRS:
- <em>The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is responsible for the determination, assessment, and collection of internal revenue in the United States. ... The Bureau of Internal Revenue was established July 1, 1862, to collect the new income tax, which was used to pay for the Civil War. The income tax, which was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1895, was reinstated by the Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution on February 25, 1913. The Bureau of Internal Revenue was responsible for enforcement of the Prohibition amendment in the 1920s. The Bureau of Internal Revenue was reorganized in 1953 and renamed the Internal Revenue Service. It remains the largest of the Treasury bureaus, employing 110,000 workers nationally.</em>
