House panel votes to release realDonaldTrump's tax returns after multiyear Democratic quest
The committee voted 24-16 to release six years' worth of Trump's tax returns to the broader House of Representatives after a closed-door meeting on Capitol Hill. Democrats had made it clear that they wanted to see details of the returns released, although up until Tuesday, it was a question of whether they would release the full returns or offer up details in the form of a summary. The closed-door meeting lasted nearly four and a half hours.
Trump broke tradition by declining to make his tax returns public in 2016 as a presidential candidate, though he was not required by law to do so. Nor did he release his returns as president. As a result, Democrats have been working to dig into the former president’s tax returns for years.Democrats have been using the legal system to try to obtain the returns for more than three years.
Republicans have cast the Democratic attempt to reveal details of Trump’s tax returns as a political stunt that sets a new and dangerous precedent. Ranking member Kevin Brady said in a statement before Tuesday’s closed-door meeting that Democrats are unleashing a “political weapon” that “jeopardizes the privacy of every American.”
