Federal judge blocks IRS from sharing information to help ICE with deportations

Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled the IRS likely violated federal law by sharing thousands of taxpayer addresses with ICE, halting the program amid concerns over immigrant privacy.

  • On Friday, District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly blocked the IRS from sharing taxpayers' home addresses with ICE, writing a 94-page opinion that found the program unlawful for failing to protect sensitive data.
  • Court records show the IRS provided ICE information on about 47,000 potentially undocumented taxpayers, but the judge found it unlikely one agent could oversee so many cases personally.
  • Immigrant-Rights groups hailed the ruling as a victory against mass deportations, and the Trump administration can appeal the decision, which safeguards millions of undocumented immigrants who pay taxes.
