The House Ways and Means Committee on Friday released Donald Trumps tax returns, dealing yet another setback to the former president and 2024 White House candidate as he faces multiple federal and state investigations.
The Democratic-led panel released the financial documents for six years, capping a protracted legal and political battle that could have been prevented had Trump followed presidential precedent and released his returns voluntarily.
Democrats have pushed for more than three years to make Trumps tax returns public, and the documents were finally made available to the Ways and Means Committee late last month after the Supreme Court denied a last attempt by Trump to withhold the records......
The American people want to have trust that the most powerful individual in this country, who has vested in them all the powers of the executive branch, is making decisions based on the interest of American people and not their own self financial interest, Rep. Jimmy Gomez (D-Calif.), who sits on the Ways and Means Committee, said in an interview.
