House to release realDonaldTrump's redacted tax returns on Tuesday: Report
It’s not clear when the committee is expected to release the trove of documents, but it’s expected to be sometime in the early afternoon, according to journalist Pablo Manriquez. A spokesperson for the House Ways and Means Committee has not responded to a request for comment by the Washington Examiner.
House Democrats scrambled to get their hands on Trump’s tax returns to release to the public before the end of the year, seeking to accomplish the yearslong goal before the party cedes control of the lower chamber to Republicans next week. The records also come at a critical time for Trump as he seeks a third White House bid and attempts to fight off a handful of other criminal investigations.
Trump has long fought against the release of his tax returns both while he was in office and after he left. However, his efforts were shot down by the Supreme Court last month when it ruled the House Ways and Means Committee could have access to his tax returns. While in office, Trump repeatedly claimed his returns were under IRS audits in an attempt to justify his refusal to release the records to the public. While it was not mandatory to release his tax returns, Trump’s actions broke with a yearslong tradition that saw presidents voluntarily releasing their records to the public.
Throughout the course of Trump’s term, the IRS only began one audit, which wasn’t completed before he left the White House in 2021, the panel found. It’s unclear why the audits were never conducted, and the report does not suggest Trump pressured the agency.
