On May 12, 2013, the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration released a report that found that the Exempt Organizations division of the IRS inappropriately targeted Tea Party and other conservative applicants for tax-exempt status and subjected them to heightened scrutiny. Documents show that Lois G. Lerner, retired Director of IRS Exempt Organizations, was involved in subjecting these applicants to this scrutiny. Through e-mails, documents, and the testimony of other IRS officials, the committee has discovered Lois Lerner's role in the IRS targeting scandal. The report states that the public needs a full accounting of what occurred and who was involved to ensure officials are never again in a position to abuse the public trust again.141 pagesenStaff ReportsHouse Majority Staff Report20: Government Operations2009: IRS Administrationhttps://web.archive.org/web/20230614211045/https://oversight.house.gov/report/staff-report-lois-lerners-involvement-irs-targeting-tax-exempt-organizations/113Yes
