The lawsuit contends the law should be ruled unconstitutional and his tax returns in New York should not legally be available to the congressional committees.
Albany BureauALBANY - President Donald Trump sued New York and Congress on Tuesday over a state law that allows congressional committees to seek his state tax returns.
"The TRUST Act also grew out of a larger campaign in New York to uncover and expose the President’s private financial information in the hopes of damaging him politically," the lawsuit said.Trump's response "Tax secrecy is paramount — the exception being for bona fide investigative and law enforcement purposes," Cuomo, a Democrat, said in a statement when he signed the law.
The lawsuit notes that the president's concern over the New York law has been raised in recent days after House Ways and Means Chairman Richard Neal, D-Mass., has suggested he might be open to using the New York law, after indicating previously he wasn't interested in it.
