House Republicans

The saga of IRS whistleblowers, Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley and Special Agent Joseph Ziegler, remains in the news after all this time. On Friday, the Republican chairman of three House Committees–Rep. James Comer (R-KY) of Oversight and Accountability, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) Judiciary, and Rep. Jason Smith (R-MO) of Ways and Means–sent a letter to Karen Gorman, the Acting Principal Deputy Special Counsel of the U.S. Office of Special Counsel, regarding alleged retaliation against IRS whistleblowers. Their letters comes in response to what the chairmen are referring to as a “stunning development,” as Shapley’s attorneys have come out with quite the update.
