[quote][b]House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal has formally requested President Donald Trump's tax returns from the Internal Revenue Service[/b], likely launching a battle with the administration that could stretch months or even years in the courts and could shed light on the President's finances.

In a letter to the IRS sent Wednesday and first obtained by CNN, Neal cites a little known IRS code in his request for six years of Trump's personal tax returns from 2013 to 2018. He also requested the tax returns of eight of Trump's business entities, a nod to escalating pressure from liberals in the caucus who have argued that Trump's personal returns wouldn't sufficiently paint a picture of the President's financial history.

While the move will largely be seen by Republicans as a political escalation,[b] Neal explained in the letter the request is part of his oversight role.[/b] Neal wrote that the committee needed Trump's tax returns [b]to consider legislation related to the IRS's practice of auditing sitting presidents.[/b][/quote]

I love this! I am so glad 2018 house flip happened. I hope the committees find the slimes and create laws to make them crimes so that we get out of the honor system presidencies![/quote]
