My employer is not withholding any federal taxes from my checks

I live in Missouri, I work in Illinois. I am a lab extraction technician for a cannabis manufacturing facility. 

I am not an independent contractor. 

I am having an issue with my employer not with holding ANY federal taxes from my paycheck for two months before I caught the issue. I filed an appropriate W-4 document from the time I was hired and had no issues for a year and a few months. I even printed the documents out and proved there was no issue on my end to only be told I am liable for the money (which I know is true, however it is not my fault for it not being withheld) not paid in and they aren’t concerned. I was met with resistance every conversation I tried to have. 

I have tried reaching out to the IRS for help or to file a report and have no luck getting an actual person or getting transferred to someone else without immediately getting hung up on for “high volume calls”. 

I am frustrated and at a loss for what to do.
