(Via Daily Caller) Leave it to Texas to take matters into their own hands. This time, two Texas Congressmen introduced a bill, the Identify and Recover Lost Emails (IRS) Act (H.R. 4958), offering a $1 million reward for the recovery of former IRS director Lois Lerner’s missing emails, or a $500,000 reward for information concerning their whereabouts.

The bill, introduced by Republican congressmen Louie Gohmert and Bill Flores, also proposes a 20 percent salary cut for IRS employees until the emails are found.
“A Tea Party group in my district was one of the first conservative groups to be targeted,” Flores told Breitbart Texas. “Then one of my donors appeared to be targeted… They’re all frustrated with the IRS. Then when this news [about the lost emails] came out, they were all even more agitated.”
The bill implies that Lerner’s emails were not completely or accidentally lost, and may be recovered. By using “negative reinforcement,” Flores and Gohmert hope the IRS will cave under pressure and end the drama.
“It seems that each time the IRS has evidence that will either prove with certainty its guilt or innocence, the evidence disappears,” Gohmert told KETK NBC. “Both common sense and the law indicate, the evidence such as emails must have proved the IRS’s impropriety if not outright crimes. It is time the IRS either comes clean, or has a special prosecutor to clean it up. This bill should help in the interim.”  (read more)

In a world gone mad, Gohmert fights the good fight while still retaining a good sense of humor about himself……  He’s a Treeper !

ALSO…. (Via Fox News) – Will dangling a $1 million “carrot” finally recover former IRS official Lois Lerner’s “lost” emails?
Rep. Louie Gohmert is introducing the pricey bounty in the form of a bill on Capitol Hill, blasting Attorney General Eric Holder and the Department of Justice for failing to get the job done.
The Texas congressman appeared on “America’s Newsroom” Friday to explain why he thinks his bill can get the answers Republicans are looking for.
“We know those emails are out there, we know they can be found,” he said. “We just need the people to help find them.”
“This is a way to work around the attorney general to achieve justice,” he continued, accusing Holder of helping hide the truth and calling for his resignation.
“The attorney general can’t say attorney general forever. We will get justice.”  (read more)
