US Supreme Court paves path to obtain Trump’s tax returns

Al Jazeera  

The United States Supreme Court on Tuesday cleared the way for the imminent handover of former President Donald Trump’s tax returns to a congressional committee after a three-year legal fight. The court, without comment, rejected Trump’s plea for an order that would have prevented the US Department of the Treasury from giving six years of tax returns for Trump and some of his businesses to the Democrat-controlled House Ways and Means Committee. Lower courts agreed that the committee has broad authority to obtain tax returns, dismissing Trump’s claims that the committee was overstepping and only wanted the documents so that they could be made public. The House Ways and Means panel and its chairman, Democrat Richard Neal of Massachusetts, first requested Trump’s tax returns in 2019 as part of an investigation into the Internal Revenue Service’s audit programme and tax law compliance by the former president.
