Liberal activists say they are “doubling down” on their effort to pressure House Ways and Means Chairman Richard Neal to obtain Donald Trump’s tax returns
Liberal activists say they are “doubling down” on their effort to pressure House Ways and Means Chairman Richard Neal to obtain President Donald Trump’s tax returns.
Stand Up America and Tax March are spearheading what they call “a national day of action” Tuesday, encouraging constituents of Democratic Ways and Means members to call their offices and urge them to “publicly demand Chairman Neal immediately submit the request for Trump’s personal and business tax returns” to the Treasury Department.Neal can do so under a law that was little known before Democrats made clear their intention to examine Trump’s tax returns for conflicts and other malfeasance.
The groups claim a previous call-in effort generated 7,759 calls to House Democrats and 8,950 tweets to Ways and Means Democrats.
