Former President Donald Trump asked the Supreme Court on Monday to block the release of his tax returns from the Internal Revenue Service slated to be sent to a House committee.
Trump filed his emergency request just days after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit rejected his bid to reconsider its previous 3-0 ruling that paved the way for his tax information to be sent to the House Ways and Means Committee. The request was made to Chief Justice John Roberts, who has authority over such appeals stemming from the District of Columbia.
The committee initially sued in 2019 to obtain Trump's federal records from 2015 through 2020 after then-Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin refused to comply with the committee’s request.
"The Chairman has identified a legitimate legislative purpose that it requires information to accomplish," Judge David Sentelle, a Reagan appointee, wrote in the panel’s opinion."At this stage, it is not our place to delve deeper than this."
