Abstract
The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform issued a staff report examining an IRS scandal targeting certain people based on their political beliefs. The report specifically delves into IRS Commissioner John Koskinen's role in this scandal and his degree of cooperation in the ensuing investigation. The committee finds that Koskinen failed to adequately cooperate with the investigation, and even took a more active role in providing misleading and erroneous documents.
