“These documents reveal Treasury officials exhibiting much of the worst of the Biden administration – overreach of statutory authority, outsourcing policymaking to outside special interest groups, and dealing harshly with dissenting voices,” Michael Chamberlain said.

Newly-disclosed emails from former President Joe Biden’s Treasury Department show coordination between the administration and left-wing organizations on tax policy and messaging, raising concerns about the influence of special interest groups over the prior White House.
Public records from the Treasury Department were obtained by Protect the Public’s Trust (PPT) via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, which include documents that show email correspondence between Biden Treasury Department officials and employees of left-wing nonprofits. In the emails, the officials and nonprofits worked together on developing talking points and policy, showing a very close relationship where the latter had sway over the former.
