Judge McFadden said in his ruling that Trump was ‘wrong on the law’ to block lawmakers’ access to tax returns
A federal judge has dismissed Donald Trump’s latest effort to hide his tax returns from a House of Representatives committee, ruling that Congress’ legislative interest outweighed any deference Trump should receive as a former president.
The US district judge Trevor McFadden said in his ruling that Trump was “wrong on the law” in seeking to block the House Ways and Means Committee from obtaining his tax returns.
