US Lawmakers Urge DOJ to Investigate Tax Prep Firms and FTC for Data Leaks

Democratic lawmakers are urging the US Department of Justice to investigate and prosecute tax preparation companies for allegedly sharing taxpayer data illegally. This push comes amid concerns that these firms leaked sensitive information to big tech companies. In a related development, a group of Republican lawmakers, led by Senators Tom Cotton and Mitch McConnell, are calling for an inspector general investigation into the Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission (FTC). They allege that these government bodies, under the Biden-Harris administration, have been involved in systematic leaks of information to Bloomberg News.
