House Democrats are currently employing their recently gained majority as a tool to gain access to the tax returns of President Donald Trump.
How Will Democrats Get President Trump’s Tax Returns?
Democrats are eager to see President Trump’s tax returns to uncover any alleged conflicts of interest. In order to successfully achieve their goals, Democrats are weaponizing the Ways and Means Committee subcommittee hearing.
Richard Neal, the chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, has stated that strategic means will occur in order to access the president’s tax returns. This latest move by the House Democrats is extremely likely to prompt a considerable legal conflict. However, Democrats appear to believe that they are on the right side of things.
Bill Pascrell, one of the Democrats involved in this latest push, explained the reasoning behind the aforementioned belief:
“When we have cause for concern over conflicts or tax violations, we have every reason to use the authority given to this committee. The law is on our side.”
