Ralph Reed, the head of Freedom and Faith Coalition, called on social conservatives Friday to help Republicans take over the Senate in the fall election, saying that it would open the door for Congress to pull the plug on the IRS.

“We are not going to stop until we abolish this agency, clear that building, fumigate it,” Mr. Reed said. “I think we ought to raze that building and build a monument on the rubble so that future generations will know that we stood up and stopped tyranny.”

Mr. Reed’s group is hosting a three-day “Road to Majority” conference here in Washington, where religious conservatives have flocked in part to hear from some of the party’s potential 2016 presidential candidates.
