House GOP To Pass IRS Bills

A few months before taxes are due

|

Less than two months before taxes are due, House Republicans will pass a slate of bills aimed at protecting taxpayers from IRS abuses.

The House GOP also plans to move legislation that would force the government to reveal more clearly how taxpayer money is being spent.

Republicans' legislative plans follow a year of constant scrutiny of the IRS, after the tax collection agency admitted it improperly targeted for extra scrutiny conservative groups applying for tax exempt status, delaying their approval.
