If Trump runs again in 2020, it's looking like he won't be able to hide his tax returns. From The Hill: "The California State Assembly on Thursday passed a bill that would require all presidential candidates to release their tax returns prior to being placed on the state’s ballot. The bill, called the Presidential Tax Transparency and Accountability Act, passed the state assembly on a 42-18 vote and will now head to the state Senate for a concurrence vote before being sent to the Governor for his signature. 'President Trump’s blatant disregard for the tradition of releasing tax returns is dangerous to our democracy,' Senator Mike McGuire (D), one of the authors of the bill, said in a statement. 'For decades, every President has put their personal beliefs aside and put our country first and released their returns. SB 149 helps to reestablish desperately needed transparency in the White House, and we are looking forward to seeing the Governor’s signature on the bill.' The bill would require all presidential candidates to release the last five years of their tax returns in order to appear on the California ballot. The tax returns would be made available to the public on the California Secretary of State’s website." This is great news! Republicans in Congress continue to refuse to demand Trump's taxes. Last week, a House panel rejected another Democratic resolution to request President Trump’s tax returns, just as Republicans are increasing their focus on overhauling the tax code -- proposed changes that will likely make Trump, his family and his cabinet members wealthier. The House Ways and Means Committee voted along party lines last Thursday to unfavorably report the measure to the House Floor. Please stay tuned for more updates on Trump's tax returns and his attempts to lower taxes on corporations and the wealthiest Americans, at the expense of everyone else.
