The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform will meet Wednesday to vote on censuring IRS Commissioner John Koskinen.

The measure - part of a larger campaign by conservatives against Koskinen over the way he handled investigations of the 2013 IRS nonprofit targeting scandal - would require him to forfeit his government pension.

Conservative House Republicans want to impeach Koskinen for failing to preserve evidence connected to former IRS official Lois Lerner and then taking four months to tell Congress about the deletion of some of the evidence. Koskinen has denied that he deliberately mislead Congress.

The Judiciary Committee will meet next Wednesday to review the standards for impeachment.
