House Republicans Asking President to Fire IRS Head
Published at | Updated at
marcnorman/iStock/ThinkStock(WASHINGTON) — Congressional republicans are demanding the President ask his Internal Revenue Service (IRS) commissioner to resign.
They insist he hasn’t cooperated and let the agency destroy evidence that could prove the IRS targeted conservative groups.
The agency released a statement saying Commissioner Josh Koskinen has cooperated and has been truthful and employees have testified in more than 30 congressional hearings offering more than a million pages of documents.
A treasury investigation suggests the IRS did destroy some relative records and email files.
Many House Republicans want the President to hire a new IRS leader.
No response yet from the President or the IRS.
