In wake of IRS scandal, new bill would crack down on political discrimination
Okeydokely, so THIS is what they are after. 2 seconds after they created scandal, they will get a bill through the House that will let their TEA party go tax free. No one will ever dare question them again. Yet we still do not have a gun law after our children are killed. And we do not have a banking law after all our money was stolen. And we do not have a jobs bill after all our jobs were disappeared.
In wake of IRS scandal, new bill would crack down on political discrimination
In response to revelations that the IRS subject conservative groups to excessive scrutiny during the 2012 elections, a Republican congressman on Monday unveiled a bill to make such actions a felony.
The legislation, sponsored by Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, would make it a crime for anyone in the IRS to discriminate against a group or individual for their political or religious views or expressions. IRS employees are already prohibited from targeting anyone for their political or religious beliefs, but the harshest penalty for it under current law is termination.
Turner's bill would make the criminal penalty for such actions a $5,000 fine, up to five years in prison or both -- the same penalties that a member of the president's cabinet would face for these kinds of actions.
