IRS Commissioner Quits Over Controversial Data Sharing Deal with ICE.

The acting head of the IRS, Melanie Krause, is quitting her job. She is upset about a new plan to share information about immigrants' taxes with ICE, the agency that enforces immigration laws. This plan aims to find and deport immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally.

The IRS has faced many problems because of the Trump administration's desire to share taxpayer information. For example, the previous acting commissioner retired after Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency got access to IRS data.

The Treasury Department says sharing this information will help keep the U.S. safe and is part of President Trump's plan to control immigration. This plan has led to many deportations, raids at workplaces, and the use of an old law to deport people from Venezuela.

However, many people are worried that sharing this information is against the law and violates everyone's privacy. They believe it will make immigrants less likely to pay taxes, hurt important public programs, and put a burden on U.S. citizens.

Some experts in tax law believe that sharing this information might be illegal and could lead to punishments for IRS officials. They argue that the IRS might be breaking laws that protect taxpayer information from being shared inappropriately.
