The House Ways and Means Committee debates on Capitol Hill in Washington, Wednesday, April 9, 2014, whether IRS official Lois Lerner's refusal to testify to Congress deserves criminal prosecution. Lerner, former head of the Internal Revenue Service Exempt Organizations Division, invoked her Fifth Amendment rights and refused to answer questions when twice called before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee during its investigation of whether the federal tax agency improperly targeted conservative nonprofit political groups for extra scrutiny. Ways and Means wants the Justice Department to open a criminal probe against Lerner. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite)
