IRS employees across the country – barred by federal law from engaging in political activity at work – advertised their support of Democrats and President Barack Obama while on the job, via computer screensavers, buttons, stickers, and even while servicing taxpayers, according to The Washington Times.
The information comes to light as the House Ways and Means Committee passed a resolution referring former IRS tax official Lois Lerner to the Justice Department for criminal prosecution for her role in the agency’s targeting of conservative groups seeking tax exempt status. The vote was 23-14.
A Kentucky IRS employee is serving a two-week suspension after getting caught denouncing Republicans to a taxpayer on a recorded phone line, according to the Times.
“The employee told a taxpayer she was ‘for’ the Democrats because ‘Republicans already [sic] trying to cap my pension and . . . they’re going to take women back 40 years,’” according to an Office of Special Counsel statement.
