I attended an IRS Tax Forum in Washington DC for three days this past week. Many of the programs were presented by people in top IRS positions.
One program was a two hour program on Non-Profit Organizations and preparing 990’s. Even though Lois Lerner is gone, the anti-Trump attitude was still very prevalent.
I have Lois Lerner's signature on a letter, finally granting 501(c)(3) status to my small charitable organization.
We had to wait almost 2 years for the IRS to finishing "processing" our application for tax-exempt status, even though we're a completely apolitical and uncontroversial organization. And our Form 1023 application was very uncomplicated.
I always suspected that Lois Lerner kept us waiting that long, simply because we're located in a strongly Republican district.
