SCOTUS cleared the way for the handover of former President Donald Trump's tax returns to a congressional committee after a 3 year legal fight
FILE - In this July 11, 2021, file photo former president Donald Trump speaks at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Dallas, Texas.The 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.
In the dispute over his tax returns, the Treasury Department had refused to provide the records during Trump's presidency. But the Biden administration said federal law is clear that the committee has the right to examine any taxpayer's return, including the president's. Had Trump persuaded the nation's highest court to intervene, he could have run out the clock on the committee, with Republicans ready to take control of the House in January. They almost certainly would have dropped the records request if the issue had not been resolved by then.
