Next chairman of Ways and Means Committee plans to demand Trump's tax returns

Rep. Richard Neal (D-Mass.), who's expected to become chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee in January, said Wednesday that he expects the panel to request President Trump's tax returns.

"Yes, I think we will," Neal said at a press conference when asked about the possibility, according to MassLive.

Neal, who has served as the ranking member since 2016, said he hopes Trump will release his tax returns on his own.

"I think it's is a reminder that it has to be done so that legally it meets the law. I think that there are some precedents for this," he said. "But, I hope that the president would do this on his own, largely because every president since Gerald R. Ford has voluntarily done this."
