美国财政部周一表示，在一名曾为博思艾伦汉密尔顿工作的前承包商泄露包括总统特朗普在内数千人的税务信息后，财政部正在取消与该公司的所有合同。
2024年，来自华盛顿特区的前美国国税局（IRS）承包商查尔斯·爱德华·利特尔约翰（Charles Edward Littlejohn）在承认向新闻媒体泄露特朗普先生及其他人的税务信息后，被判处5年监禁。
检察官称，2018年至2020年间，利特尔约翰向《纽约时报》和ProPublica提供了数据，这些泄露行为”在美国国税局历史上是前所未有的”。
财政部在周一的新声明中援引国税局数据称，此次税务申报单泄露影响了约40.6万人。该机构未提及利特尔约翰泄露特朗普先生税务信息一事。
财政部长斯科特·贝森特（Scott Bessent）在一份声明中表示：”特朗普总统已委托其内阁根除浪费、欺诈和滥用行为，取消这些合同是提高美国人对政府信任的重要一步。博思艾伦未能实施充分的安全措施来保护敏感数据，包括通过与美国国税局签订的合同所接触到的机密纳税人信息。”

博思艾伦汉密尔顿的一名代表尚未立即回应置评请求。
法庭文件显示，检察官称利特尔约翰专门申请成为承包商，目的是获取特朗普先生的纳税申报单，并研究如何搜索和提取税务数据以避免在内部触发怀疑。
利特尔约翰在2024年1月被判刑时表示：”我做出这个决定时完全清楚，我可能会最终站在法庭上为我的严重罪行受审。我利用自己的技能系统性地侵犯了数千人的隐私。”
财政部表示，该机构目前与博思艾伦汉密尔顿有31份合同，年度开支总计480万美元，总义务金额为2100万美元。
Feds yank contracts with Booz Allen Hamilton after Trump tax leak
January 26, 2026 / 12:36 PM EST / CBS/AP
The Department of the Treasury said Monday that it is canceling all contracts with Booz Allen Hamilton after a former contractor who worked for the consulting firm leaked tax information belonging to thousands of people, including President Trump.
In 2024, former IRS contractor Charles Edward Littlejohn of Washington, D.C. — who worked for Booz Allen Hamilton — was sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty to leaking tax information about Mr. Trump and others to news outlets.
Littlejohn gave data to The New York Times and ProPublica between 2018 and 2020 in leaks that appeared to be “unparalleled in the IRS’s history,” prosecutors said.
The Treasury Department said in a new release on Monday that the tax return leak affected roughly 406,000 people, citing IRS data. The agency did not note Littlejohn’s release of Mr. Trump’s tax info.
“President Trump has entrusted his cabinet to root out waste, fraud and abuse, and canceling these contracts is an essential step to increasing Americans’ trust in government,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a statement. “Booz Allen failed to implement adequate safeguards to protect sensitive data, including the confidential taxpayer information it had access to through its contracts with the Internal Revenue Service.”

A representative from Booz Allen Hamilton was not immediately available for comment.
In court documents, prosecutors said Littlejohn had applied to work as a contractor specifically to get Mr. Trump’s tax returns and figured out how to search and extract tax data to avoid triggering suspicions internally.
“I made my decision with full knowledge that I would likely end up in a courtroom to answer for my serious crime,” Littlejohn said at the time of his sentencing in January of 2024. “I used my skills to systematically violate the privacy of thousands of people.”
Treasury says the agency has 31 contracts with Booz Allen Hamilton totaling $4.8 million in annual spending and $21 million in total obligations.
