Is this true?
I don’t know, but I sure hope so.
It’s nonsense.
Key words: “so long as she remains in contempt of Congress.”
When this mess is all wrapped up, she’ll be “no longer in contempt” and all her precious gold-plated pension will be returned, probably with some kind of bonus.
Not only that, but I wouldn’t be surprised if every single IRS employee gets put on the “bonus list.” Something like 90% of them already are.
The House doesn’t get to make such decisions on their own. What they’ve voted on is a PROPOSAL. Doesn’t mean anything coming from the Boehner gang.
We can hope but I am sure the insane man in the senate will find a way to block it
There should be an across the board 20% pay cut on all salaries greater than, say, $80k.
Until the truth is learned, or until the national debt is paid off, whichever comes first.
> The news is even worse for Lerner personally, whose pension would be defunded under the House passed legislation so long as she remains in contempt of Congress. And with the IRS abuse extending well beyond Lois Lerner’s reach to other divisions within the Agency, the House also voted to stop career employees at the rogue Agency from receiving merit bonuses this year.
Is this true?
If so, the evidence must be damning enough for her to serve jail time and name other co-conspirators all the way up to the WH. I’m sure 0 has promised a severance package that will cover her pension if she shuts her mouth.

IMO no government employee should EVER get a merit bonus unless the government debt is at zero. If we have a surplus of money, it should go back to the taxpayers - not the employees.
