President Trump speaks during a meeting with congressional leaders and administration officials on tax reform in 2017.
The House Ways and Means Committee asked the IRS on Wednesday for six years of President Trump's personal and business tax returns, a request he has already said he will fight. “Congress, as a coequal branch of government, has a duty to conduct oversight of departments and officials,” Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard E. Neal said in a statement. “The Ways and Means Committee in particular has a responsibility to conduct oversight of our voluntary federal tax system and determine how Americans — including those elected to our highest office — are complying with those laws.
Trump has told White House and Treasury advisors that he does not plan to hand over his tax returns to Congress — and that he would fight it to the Supreme Court, hoping to stall until after the 2020 election, according to two administration officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe private conversations. Treasury officials are not going to comply with the request until they are compelled to do so.
Nothing to hide!!!Yet .realDonaldTrump is going to fight this inquiry. This coming from the man who demanded.BarackObama showed us his birt certificate. CroockedTrump
Say no Mr. President and everyone else around you ash no too. It’s just peer intimidation and character assassination it’s what Dems are known for now😡😤🤥
Just another lie to be exposed, nothing to see here
If he has nothing to hide, what’s the big deal 😊
🇺🇸👍Yes he should release his tax return and next.... -DACA parents pay ALL back taxes💰🇲🇽 -Shut Mexican Border🇲🇽 -Manage Ports of Entry -Fund Wall -No Blanket Amnesty -No H1B Visa Overstay Mercy -Declaring Cartels Terrorist Groups (as recommended by DEA)
One of his campaign promises was to release his tax returns 🤨
It’s not a law to release tax returns. After Nixon It then became common practice for anyone running for the Presidency to release their tax returns. Anyone worried about the Presidents tax returns has no clue that does not show anything. It won’t happen.
The President should fight it! This is Presidential harrassment. Investigating a President where no crime can be pointed to...simply searching for a crime. SICK! This isn't how our justice system is supposed to work. Should we investigate the next Democrat President too?
This is the sort of thing that makes it clear he very much means to play his supporters like a fiddle for his own benefit.
This request is rubbish.
Mr. Trump is the President, and is under NO obligation to show anyone his tax records. Those are personal and private.
Just close the IRS. Problem solved.
Pathetic Democrats and their parlor games trying to obstruct government
If Something is personal how can that be for public ! Imagine people ! 😉
