Excerpted from WSJ: A Republican House committee chairman said the Internal Revenue Service targeted tax-exempt conservative groups for audits, widening the scope of GOP ire over the agency’s oversight of political activities.
House Democrats pushed back, saying Republicans were seeking to use the IRS controversy to score political points with their conservative base in an election year.
The IRS has been under scrutiny since an inspector general’s report last May found that the agency had targeted conservative groups for lengthy and heavy-handed review of their applications to become tax-exempt organizations under section 501(c) 4 of the tax code. The controversy led to significant management shakeups at the IRS and generated a slew of congressional investigations, some of which are still going on.
On Tuesday, House Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp (R., Mich.) said his committee’s continuing investigation has found that the IRS also singled out established conservative tax-exempt groups for audits.

Can the IRS be audited?
ReplyDeleteOk. Now tell me what did the Republicans do about it? See this is the problem. neither side represent the people anymore.
ReplyDeleteAnd what did the RINO's and weak, lazy Republicans do nothing about it. Andy Harris is our Rep in Congress and his little vote yay or nay on things to appeal some of his voters isn't enough. We need Andy Harris' voice to be heard. We need Andy Harris to start things like impeachment proceedings against the illegal alien in the White House. All Andy Harris is doing is buying time on his cushy government retirement that his medical career could never get him.
ReplyDeleteI am ready to go to war in this country against the Illegals, the Muslims and the Democrats who support the lazy that refuse to work.
