True the Vote, a Houston-based nonprofit dedicated to fighting voter fraud, has filed suit in federal court against the IRS, asking the court to grant its tax-exempt status (three years after applying) and seeking damages for unlawful actions taken by the IRS against the organization.
Catherine Engelbrecht, a member of the Harris County, Texas, tea-party organization King Street Patriots, founded True the Vote after serving as a poll worker during the 2008 elections. Observing how understaffed polling places seemed to encourage voter fraud, she established True the Vote to train poll workers to “true” the vote: “to research the voter rolls in their home districts and to report inaccuracies to their County and State, to identify instances of vote fraud, and to be able to serve as observers at the polls to assure the integrity of the vote.”
“We’ve been waiting for three years to receive a decision from the IRS about our tax exempt status,” says Engelbrecht in a True the Vote press release. “After answering hundreds of questions and producing thousands of documents, we’re done waiting. The IRS does not have the power to pocket veto our application. Federal law empowers groups like True the Vote to force a decision in court — which is precisely what we aim to do.”
After filing with the IRS, Engelbrecht and her family’s small manufacturing business was audited by the IRS — and received unexpected scrutiny from OSHA, the ATF, and the FBI.

THESE ARE GOOD PEOPLE AND DESERVE OUR DONATIONS FOR THIS EFFORT.
True the Vote (who helped examine and catalog the Walker recall petitions) files suit against the IRS today.
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
These are good people who have been abused in our names. Donate if you can.
Federal Employee unions need to be decertified and Reaganized.
People in .gov need to go to prison for this. A LOT of people.
Jail time for everyone. The “I was just doing what I was told” shouldn’t let someone off. That way the next guy will think twice.
Utilize their own tools to take the fight to them.
Too bad all of our institutions are infected with the madness of liberalism.
No chance of making headway without some pain inflicted on the perpetrators.
Now that the vote means nothing, what?
Catherine was on Glenn Beck’s Real News Panel (Buck Sexton, Amy Holmes, S.E. Cupp, and the other young fellow whose name escapes me) today. She says that her and her husband’s suit, as taxpayers, allows them access to some of the players in this fascist drama that Congress would have trouble interrogating. She has the markings of a true fighter for American freedom.
From your computer to God's Ears! Amen Brother.
I pray for their success.
They ARE awesome people, and I know this from first hand experience. They’re about to get all up in St. Lucie’s grill, and figure out why 2,000 ballots mysteriously appeared in the Election Supervisor’s office. Allen West got screwed.
Hell yes !
Didn't work then. Shouldn't work now either.
Couldn’t agree more!
Let us all put our money where our mouths are. I firstly support FR, and secondly True the Vote. I worked firsthand on their efforts online, and was astonished at the level of cheating that went on here in Wisconsin. Please help them fight for all of us. Thanks.
