Treasury Inspector General is withholding documents
A Treasury inspector general is withholding documents a court said it should disclose. The legal group Cause of Action in September won a ruling in the District Court of the District of Columbia. It was seeking documents showing whether the White House had seen confidential tax returns from conservative groups. GovExec reports now the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration said it will withhold most of the documents. More than 2,000 pages are involved. TIGTA said it's being responsive to Cause of Action's Freedom of Information Act request in pulling the documents together. But it cites the IRS code protecting taxpayer privacy, in not releasing them.
