AUSTIN, Texas (AP) Texas Gov. Rick Perry is calling on fellow Republican and former rival Mitt Romney to release his tax returns.
Perry said anyone running for office should make public as much personal information as possible to help voters decide.
Perry has released his tax returns dating to 1992.
Romney has come under increasing pressure from Democrats and Republicans to release more than the two years of returns he has promised to make public. He has released his 2010 return and has said he'll release the 2011 when its completed later this year.

(2,627 posts)Republican congressman and former presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) has called on presumptive Republican candidate Gov. Mitt Romney (R-MA) to release more of his tax returns to the public, according to Politico. In an interview, Paul said that he believes that it would help Romney politically to come clean and open his financial records to scrutiny.

..., critics and friends alike want to know the exact extent of Romneys wealth, as well as where that money is and what its doing. Is it, as the Obama campaign has charged, languishing in an offshore account in a tax haven like Bermuda or the Cayman Islands? Or is the former governor in fact keeping his money in the United States, investing in American companies and living up to his billing as a job creator?
