‘Dangerous New Precedent’: House Dems To Release Trump’s Tax Returns

  • The House Ways and Means Committee voted Tuesday to release former President Donald Trump’s tax returns, a major win for Democrats who have been seeking the records for years.
  • 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.
  • Bank account information, Social Security numbers, and other information will be redacted in the committee report to the House, which will contain not only Trump’s tax returns but also returns from eight business entities affiliated with the former president.
