A Democratic-controlled U.S. House of Representatives committee has released six years of former President Donald Trump’s tax returns to the public in an extraordinary move days before Republicans take control of the chamber.
The release of Trump’s redacted returns for 2015 through 2020 caps a multi-year battle between the Republican former president and Democratic lawmakers that was settled only last month by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Trump’s tax data will now be available for in-depth investigations by journalists, independent tax experts and others during the run-up to the 2024 presidential election and could shed light on Trump’s wealth, his businesses’ performance and ways he reduced his tax liability.
