Two IRS Officials on Leave Over Free Food at Convention The Internal Revenue Service said it placed two employees on leave for accepting free food during a party at the agency’s 2010 conference in California. At least one of the employees works for the IRS division that will administer President Barack Obama’s health-care law, according to a congressional aide who wasn’t authorized to discuss the matter publicly. They accepted $1,100 in free food and other items at the conference in Anaheim, said the aide. [Bloomberg]
