I introduced this bill in 2016, when it became clear that then candidate Trump wouldn’t #ReleaseTheReturns. It’s been over two years and he is still keeping his financial dealings secret. https://www.finance.senate.gov/ranking-members-news/wyden-offers-bill-calling-on-presidential-nominees-to-release-tax-returns …

Week after week of his presidency, more questions are raised about Trump’s financial dealings that could influence his decisions in the White House. This bill will create REAL oversight and transparency for the American public.

Well if Trump wants to run in 2020 I think he would have to show his taxes for the last 10 years...it is what should be done before anyone can even run for any State or Federal office.. that is what I think

I agree, I also think they should have to disclose them every year in office so we can see how fast their wealth is growing and where it’s coming from.

how about a bill that requires anyone holding public office to PASS A FBI FULL BACKGROUND CHECK BEFORE YOU CAN PUT YOUR NAME ON A BALLOT AT YOUR OWN COST... HOW ABOUT THAT FOR A BILL.

Better yet, all Presidential candidates should be able to pass a TS/SCI security clearance background check, like many people who work for military contractors have to get. POTUS works with materials you should have to have a clearance to get access to.https://work.chron.com/obtain-ts-sci-security-clearance-10629.html …

all for it, just recently learned anyone in an elected office has NO clearance... I like your idea even better.

No it went belly up , but that's not the point, she is not any more qualified to represent the United States than her old Man.
