Federal Judge Reggie B. Walton ruled this week that the IRS must reveal the employees responsible for unfairly targeting conservative groups. Furthermore, the IRS must prove they are no longer targeting these groups, which include many Tea Party organizations.

Walton also said that the IRS must prove why they chose to delay 38 groups that were seeking nonprofit status. These groups are part of the lawsuit which was filed in the District of Columbia. Years after the scandal that involved Lois Lerner erupted, these groups are still looking for answers.

Hopefully, they will soon get them:

At a hearing earlier this week, Judge Walton said it was time to get everything on the table.

“Lay it on the line. Put it out there,” he told attorneys for the IRS, who are continuing to fight some tea party groups’ demands for full disclosure.

The targeting scandal burst open in May 2013 when the IRS admitted it had been pulling conservative-leaning groups’ nonprofit status applications out of the usual processing queue and subjecting them to extra scrutiny and extraordinary delays because of perceived political activity. http://www.dcstatesman.com/federal-judge-rules-favor-conservatives-irs-scandal/
