The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) reached an agreement to share data on taxpayers to target illegal immigration, according to a Monday court filing.
In the new court documents, Department of Justice (DOJ) lawyers arguing on behalf of the Treasury Department said that a memorandum of understanding, or MOU, that was “signed by the Department of the Treasury and DHS reiterates the agencies’ commitment to sharing information only in the way” that the law “permits and includes clear guardrails to ensure compliance.”
