  "summary": "A U.S. appeals court has upheld an injunction blocking the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) policy from sharing taxpayer addresses with immigration authorities, ruling that the Trump administration's practice violated federal law. The court found that the IRS improperly disclosed roughly 47,000 taxpayer addresses to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under a procedure adopted during the Trump administration to expand immigration enforcement. The IRS and the Department of Homeland Security did not respond to requests for comment. The ruling emphasizes the need for stringent conditions and individual review when sharing taxpayer information, as mandated by Congress following the Watergate scandal.",
