Congress can seek 8yrs of Trump's tax records..
Congress can seek eight years of President Trumps tax records, according to a federal appeals court order Wednesday that moves the separation-of-powers conflict one step closer to the Supreme Court.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit let stand an earlier ruling against the president that affirmed Congresss investigative authority on a day when the House was holding its first public impeachment inquiry hearing.
Trumps lawyers have said they are prepared to ask the Supreme Court to intervene in this case and in several other legal battles between the president and Congress.
The D.C. Circuit was responding Wednesday to Trumps request to have a full panel of judges rehear a three-judge decision from October that rejected the presidents request to block lawmakers from subpoenaing his longtime accounting firm.
