House Democrat weighs subpoena or court case for Trump's taxes

WASHINGTON - U.S. House tax committee Chairman Richard Neal said on Thursday that he will decide by the end of the week whether to subpoena President Donald Trump's tax returns or go to court to obtain the documents, which the administration refuses to hand over.

Amid a broad stonewalling of numerous House probes into Trump's presidency and family and business interests, the administration is opposing Neal's efforts to obtain six years of Trump's individual and business tax returns. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Monday denied Neal's formal April 3 request for the returns, arguing that the committee request lacks"a legitimate legislative purpose."
