The labor union representing Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service workers has filed a motion asking a judge to block a tax audit immunity agreement for former President Donald Trump. The union argues that this agreement would compel IRS employees to choose between following political directives and adhering to the law.
The lawsuit asserts that Trump and his family are obligated to pay taxes owed, just like any other taxpayer, and claims that the immunity order undermines the integrity of the tax system by allowing certain taxpayers to be treated differently.
The updated lawsuit also challenges the immunity deal that prevents IRS audits of Trump and his businesses, stating that it violates laws prohibiting presidential interference in tax audits. The Justice Department and Trump's attorney have not yet provided comments regarding the lawsuit.
代表国税局员工的工会请求法官阻止特朗普税务审计豁免协议
代表财政部和国税局员工的工会已提交动议，请求法官阻止前总统特朗普的税务审计豁免协议。工会认为，该协议将迫使国税局员工在遵循政治指令和遵守法律之间做出选择。
诉讼声称，特朗普及其家人有义务像其他纳税人一样缴纳应缴税款，并声称豁免令通过允许某些纳税人受到不同对待而破坏了税制的完整性。
更新后的诉讼还挑战了阻止国税局对特朗普及其企业进行审计的豁免协议，称其违反了禁止总统干预税务审计的法律。司法部和特朗普的律师尚未对此诉讼作出评论。
