A federal judge has granted House Democrats access to two years of former President Donald Trump’s tax records.
The Democratic lawmakers investigating Trump will be able to see his personal financial records from 2017 and 2018, US District Court Judge Amit Mehta of Washington ruled on Wednesday.
House Democrats will also have access to documents relating to Trump’s lease of a building near the White House, according to the Washington Post.
Democrats had claimed that they needed Trump’s financial records from 2011 to 2018 in order to pen legislation fixing ‘glaring weaknesses in current ethics legislation’ that came out during the 45th president’s tenure.
