House Democrats volunteered today to alert Trump if they seek his state tax returns under a recently passed New York law
Trump lawyer William Consovoy had urged Nichols, a Trump appointee, to require either Ways and Means Chairman Richard Neal or New York officials to give him two weeks' notice of any request for the returns. Consovoy still wants to challenge any request but fears Democrats could obtain the president’s records without notice — making such an effort moot.
Searching for a compromise, Nichols asked Neal’s lawyers in a hearing today if they would instead volunteer the information. Neal has demonstrated little interest in the New York law, which grants him access to Trump’s state records upon request. But Consovoy fears that could suddenly change, especially if Democrats’ other suits for Trump’s federal returns and other financial records are not successful.
