The IRS Scandal, Day 1019

The Blaze, ‘Strong Legal Limits on the IRS’: Spending Bill Takes Aim at Targeting Scandal:

After a two-year investigation, there has been little accountability in the wake of the Internal Revenue Service scandal in which many conservative groups were targeted by the taxing agency. ...

“The IRS has failed the American people by targeting individuals and organizations based on their political beliefs,” House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said in a statement. “That is unacceptable. The House has succeeded in putting strong legal limits on the IRS so that our government is accountable to the people.” ...

The bill will prohibit the IRS from suppressing participation in nonprofit 501(c)4 organizations. Provisions in the spending bill further prohibit money for the IRS from targeting individuals exercising their First Amendment rights to political speech.

It further prohibits money for bonuses or hiring former employees without considering that person’s employee conduct or federal tax compliance, and requires extensive reporting on IRS spending and official time.
