Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced on Thursday that the Department of Justice reached a settlement with the conservative groups that were illegally targeted by the IRS under the Obama administration.
Along with a large payout to some 400 groups that were in the lawsuit, the Tea Party groups who were denied or delayed tax-exempt status have been promised an apology from the IRS for targeting them “based solely on their viewpoint or ideology” under the watchful eye of Lois Lerner.
