Flashback: IRS Commissioner Koskinen promises Lois Lerner’s emails 3-26-2014

What the IRS Commissioner Said About Those Lois Lerner Emails Back in March

by Sharyl Attkisson on June 15, 2014

Friday’s revelation that the IRS “lost” Lois Lerner’s emails in a computer crash came ten months after Congress first requested them and seven months after they were first subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee. But what IRS Commissioner John Koskinen testified about the emails at a hearing in March appears to be at odds with his agency’s newer reported claims that the emails are irretrievable.

Under questioning by Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) on the House Oversight Committee, Koskinen said IRS emails “get taken off and stored in servers.” That was part of the reason, he said, it was so difficult to provide them in a timely fashion.

Thanks!

IIRC, it was Chaffetz who asked that this article be entered into the record:
