An organization representing Internal Revenue Service (IRS) employees has joined a lawsuit challenging a settlement related to President Donald Trump's tax audits. The lawsuit, filed in the Eastern District of Virginia, contests a provision that would grant Trump and his family immunity from certain tax audits, which the plaintiffs argue is unlawful and unconstitutional. The National Treasury Employees Union claims that this carve-out provides benefits not available to other Americans. The lawsuit also addresses a related fund intended for individuals claiming victimization from political weaponization, including those involved in the January 6 Capitol riots. The Justice Department has yet to respond to the amended lawsuit.
