House intervenes in IRS whistleblower case, on behalf of whistleblowers

The House of Representatives said Monday that they would be getting involved, because Congress is “considerably interested in whistleblowers who provide information to Congress about waste, fraud and abuse at federal agencies.”

The House argued that the lawsuit brought by Biden would discourage other whistleblowers and harm its ability to oversee the executive branch.

The House stated that it will continue to monitor the case.
