Volume 3: Internal Revenue Service

Volume 3 focuses on abuses of the Internal Revenue Service during the Nixon Presidency. Areas of abuse included misuse of tax information, particularly passing such data to the FBI to aid its targetting of domestic dissidents. More ominously, the IRS itself had a Special Services Staff whose job it was to target such individuals and groups for investigation. The 8,000 individuals and 3,000 organizations on the SSS list included the American Civil Liberties Union, the NAACP, the National Urban League, the American Library Association, the Ford Foundation, and even the Headstart program. The Committee heard from Donald Alexander, the Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, accompanied by counsel and several assistant commissioners of the IRS.
