New House Ways and Means chairman has indicated he will ‘lay out a case’ to obtain POTUS’ tax records
Progressive groups renewed their calls Thursday for the leading Democrat on the House committee with jurisdiction over taxes to “immediately” obtain Donald Trump’s tax returns, which the president refused to release during the 2016 campaign after initially promising to do so.
“As the newly appointed Chairman of the House Committee on Ways and Means, it is your constitutional duty and responsibility to conduct effective oversight of President Donald Trump and his administration,” three leading progressive groups on the issue wrote in a letter to Democratic Rep. Richard Neal of Massachusetts.
The progressive coalition is composed of the Tax March, which organized rallies in 200 cities in April 2017 to demand that the president release his taxes, and anti-Trump groups Indivisible and Stand Up America.
