A quick overview of some videos for the ways and means hearing. This hearing was conducted this morning(5/17/2013). Below are a few videos of questions and responses given to Steve Miller the outgoing acting chief of the IRS. He resigned this week amid this ongoing scandal.
All of this came to light after Lois Lerner had a planted questioner ask her about questions that had been asked in the media about the IRS and Tea Party Groups and she issued an apology, This came just days after her hearing before the Ways and Means Committee herself and right before the Inspector General's report on the IRS's mishandling on Tea Party and conservative groups requests for tax exemption.
Mike Kelly (R-PA)
Asks about how it came about and who was responsible for these acts. Also talks about the fear of the IRS and government overreach in America.
Rep Pat Tiberi (R-OH) Discusses individuals in Ohio and their experiences trying to receive tax exempt status including voluminous material required by the IRS.
Rep. Aaron Schock R-IL discussed tea party groups and questions asked, including whether the content of a persons prayers was an appropriate question to be included in follow up questions.
Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) asks is this still America? Discusses whether there has been extreme government overreach and targeting of individuals. Also asks about sharing of this information to other government agencies.
And last but not least, Rep Paul Ryan (R-WI)
