On October 17th, 2016, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer rallied with employees and company executives at the Pioneer Credit Recovery, Inc. facility in Perry, NY, Wyoming County to officially celebrate the company’s win last month of a significant federal Internal Revenue Service (IRS) contract that will strengthen the company’s presence in Wyoming County and position it to add new jobs across its three locations in Perry, Arcade and Horseheads. This contract comes as a result of a provision Schumer pushed to include in the federal transportation bill that passed Congress last December – the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act. The provision enabled the IRS to hire designated private collection agencies to support the collection of delinquent taxes that are not being collected now for lack of federal resources. The recovered funds will pay for the collections themselves and go into the Treasury's General Fund, which supports national priorities such as funding public infrastructure projects, the U.S. military, and other federal needs.
