HHS nominee Sebelius amends tax returns

Wall Street Journal, April 1, 2009

Health and Human Services nominee Kathleen Sebelius amended three years' worth of tax returns to correct errors, paying back taxes and interest totaling just under $8,000. She is the fifth nominee to run into tax problems, though Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus said in a statement that the errors were "minor [and] unintentional" and expressed strong support for her confirmation.
