Kent: My opponent is 'on the record supporting 87,000 new IRS agents'

Joe Kent, a candidate for Congress in Washington's 3rd Congressional District, has signalled his support for a bill that would block the use of funds to "build an army of tax SWAT teams," according to a press release from the Stand For Freedom PAC.
