IRS Will Face Lawsuit Over Targeting of Pro-Life, Conservative Groups

 by Steven Ertelt

The IRS will soon face more than controversy and Congressional hearings over its discrimination of pro-life and conservative groups. The federal agency will soon find itself in court.

Next week, the ACLJ will directly confront the IRS with a lawsuit representing dozens of victims of its discriminatory actions.
