Democrat Cummings Calls for End of “Public Harassment” of IRS Chief
Democrat Cummings Calls for End of “Public Harassment” of IRS Chief
Posted by Jim Hoft on Monday, July 21, 2014, 9:38 PM
Democrat Elijah Cummings (D-MD) called for an end to the “public harassment” of Obama IRS Chief John Koskinen. Cummings wants the whole investigation to just go away.
The Washington Examiner reported, via FOX Nation:
The top Democrat on the House Oversight and Government Reform panel is objecting to a plan to call the Internal Revenue Service commissioner to testify for a third time in a matter of weeks, calling it “public harassment of an agency head.”Democrat Elijah Cummings Faces Up to Five Years in Federal Prison for obstructing the Congressional hearing.
Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., sent a letter Monday to Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., objecting to a decision to call Commissioner John Koskinen to testify at a hearing on Wednesday. It would be the third time Koskinen appeared before the panel in the past month, Cummings noted.
“Requiring Commissioner Koskinen to testify again this week not only takes him away from the day-to-day duties of operating an agency with 90,000 employees, but it also diverts our Committee from conducting responsible oversight on many key areas that traditionally have been part of our jurisdiction,” Cummings said in the letter.
Issa, who is serving his last term as head of the oversight panel, has summoned Koskinen this week to provide an update to the panel on the investigation into targeting of conservative groups seeking tax exempt status, including the status of missing emails from top IRS officials.
Republicans believe they have been stonewalled by the agency.
