An Internal Revenue Service supervisor in Cincinnati has told lawmakers that the White House wasn’t involved in the agency’s scrutiny of small-government groups, said Representative Elijah Cummings of Maryland.

Cummings, the top Democrat on a panel probing the IRS over its tougher review of Tea Party groups’ tax-exempt status, said today on CNN’s “State of the Union” program that it’s time to “wrap up this case and move on” by ending congressional investigations.
