Enroll America under fire again after video suggests involvement in partisan politics

Enroll America, the group leading efforts to enroll Americans in ObamaCare, is facing accusations again that it has violated its tax-exempt nonprofit status by engaging in partisan politics - following the release of a video in which a top official seems to brag about his political connections. Cause of Action - a self-described nonprofit, nonpartisan government accountability group - also wrote a letter Nov. 13 to Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott asking him in part to evaluate whether entities such as Enroll America and Battleground Texas have violated the IRS code and his state's laws. "Cause of Action also argues Tarango's comments indicate Enroll is"engaging in political activity by coordinating with the pro-President Obama group Organizing for Action, a 501(c)(4) organization. The group filed the first complaint in July, asking the IRS to investigate Enroll America's tax status due to failing to operate for a charitable purpose.
