NY governor signs bill allowing Congress to obtain Trump's state tax returns
By Naomi Jagoda - 07/08/19 10:51 AM EDT

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) on Monday signed legislation that would allow Congress to obtain President Trump's New York state tax returns.

"This bill gives Congress the ability to fulfill its Constitutional responsibilities, strengthen our democratic system and ensure that no one is above the law," Cuomo said in a statement.

The bill signing comes after the House Ways and Means Committee, led by Rep. Richard Neal (D-Mass.) filed a lawsuit last week in order to obtain Trump's federal tax returns from 2013 to 2018.

Neal has indicated that he may not seek Trump's New York state returns, however.

He has said he wants to examine Trump's federal tax returns because the House panel is interested in oversight and legislation related to how the IRS audits presidents.

Good luck in actually getting them.

How ironic that the twits in NY go out of their way to facilitate this, only to have their agit-prop efforts rejected.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
