A committee in the US House of Representatives has voted to make public former US president, Donald Trump’s tax returns for a period of six years despite fighting hard to shield his tax returns.
The move caps a nearly four-year legal battle by Democrats to obtain the documents, which was ultimately decided by the US Supreme Court last month. US presidents are not required by law to release their tax returns, but for decades they have done so voluntarily.
The US House Ways and Means Committee voted 24-16 on 20th December, 2022 Tuesday evening to publish the documents, with all Democrats on the panel in favor and all Republicans opposed.
