Federal judge allows IRS to share tax data with ICE for deportation efforts, rejecting privacy claims.

A federal judge has denied a request to stop the IRS from sharing tax data with ICE to help identify and deport undocumented immigrants. Nonprofit groups argued that undocumented immigrants who pay taxes deserve the same privacy protections as U.S. citizens. The judge ruled that sharing the data does not violate the Internal Revenue Code and supports the Trump administration's efforts to secure the U.S. borders.
