NEW: Top Democrat sets April 23 deadline for IRS to deliver Trump's taxes
-- Citing an “unambiguous legal obligation,” House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal set the IRS an April 23 deadline to hand over President Donald Trump’s tax returns before potentially resorting to other legal options.“Please know that, if you fail to comply, your failure will be interpreted as a denial of my request,” Neal wrote.
In that letter, Mnuchin also questioned the scope of Congress’s investigative authority and Neal’s stated reason for the request -- that he wants them to insure that the IRS is properly auditing presidents. There is “no valid basis” to question the legitimacy of the Ways and Means Committee’s legislative purpose, Neal added.Federal law gives the chairmen of House Ways and Means, Senate Finance Committee and the Joint Committee on Taxation the power to request the returns of any taxpayer, although some legal scholars believe the request needs a legitimate legislative purpose, which Democrats say they have met.
