The statement alleges that after James office sent a FOIA seeking more information about the decision to implement the standard, the IRS did not adequately respond within the mandated time limit.

What good is law enforcement if it isn't used against lawbreakers.
Do these lawyers know how to swing a bat at high level lawbreakers.
