AP News WASHINGTON (AP) — A Washington, D.C., federal court on Tuesday rejected a request from an immigrant rights group to temporarily block the IRS from sharing certain taxpayer data that could make it easier to identify and deport people who are in the U.S. illegally.

A three-judge panel for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C.

The collision of an airliner and an Army helicopter killed 67 people in January 2025.
