A trio of key House Republicans are asking the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) to investigate the IRS’ recent denial of a Texas Christian group’s tax-exemption application.
“The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) appears to be engaging again in viewpoint discrimination. According to a recent report, the IRS improperly denied tax-exempt status to a religious group on the basis that ‘bible teachings are typically affiliated with the [Republican] party and candidates,’” the trio told TIGTA J. Russell Moore in a June 30 letter obtained by The Epoch Times.
