Trump refuses to publicly release his tax returns, despite mounting pressure in Congress that is likely to spur a legal battle for the documents to be disclosed via ReutersTV
WASHINGTON - The likelihood of a court fight over President Donald Trump’s tax returns grew on Wednesday when the U.S. Treasury Department showed no sign of complying with a deadline set by Democratic legislators and Trump himself stuck to his refusal to publicly release them.
The department, which has consulted with the White House on the panel’s demand, did not respond to requests for comment. Legal experts have said that little case law would be available to guide judges if Congress were to take the administration to court over the issue.
