Ways and Means Republicans Call On IRS, DOJ To Launch Immediate Investigation Into Potentially Criminal Leak of President's Tax Info

Press Release

The top Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee Kevin Brady (R-TX) and the top Republican on the Oversight Subcommittee Mike Kelly (R-PA) sent letters to the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Justice asking them to launch investigations into the unauthorized disclosure of the President's private tax information.

"This leak of the President's private tax information…should be a serious concern for all Americans who do not wish to have their personal tax information weaponized against them -- especially for political purposes," the lawmakers wrote. "It is imperative that we determine whether the individual or individuals that disclosed the information committed a federal crime in doing so."
