Caudle Describes Pressure Over Tax Division Actions
Caudle testified behind closed doors that before his ouster as head of the Justice Department tax division he faced pressure from government officials including lawmakers to act in ways he found improper. House members differed on whether White House officials were involved, with Chelf saying no White House link appeared and Keating citing evidence of White House pressure through others.
