According to foxnews.com, the House of Representatives has backed down on it's vote to impeach IRS Commissioner John Koskinen for his handling of congressional investigations into the tax agency. With a 342-72 vote, the House sent the issue back to the Judiciary Committee. Republicans have accused Koskinen of impeding inquiries into the Internal Revenue Service's extra scrutiny of conservative nonprofit groups, which occurred before his arrival in 2013. They say Koskinen did not alert Congress quickly enough after records were destroyed under his watch. The Obama administration has backed Koskinen. His defenders say the records' destruction was inadvertent and that he did not knowingly make false statements. They also state that the charges are not serious enough to make him the first official other than judges and presidents to be impeached since 1876.
