WASHINGTON, May 15 (Reuters) – U.S. President Barack Obama

will meet with Treasury Department officials on Wednesday after

reviewing a government report that showed the Internal Revenue

Service targeted conservative groups for extra scrutiny, White

House spokesman Jay Carney said.

Obama has called for those responsible for the IRS’ actions

to be held accountable. Carney did not go into details on what

kind of consequences the president would seek.
