Republicans in New York have ridiculed the move as an attempt to embarrass the president.

President Donald Trump speaks during the presentation of the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point football team in the Rose Garden of the White House, Monday, May 6, 2019, in Washington.

“One period of taxes that has been leaked shows many inconsistencies," said Brad Hoylman, the Democratic state senator who is spearheading the legislation. “A lot of Americans want to know what else there is.” “The New York state tax returns likely contain information that is similar to what is in the federal returns,” said Harry Sandick, former assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, noting his business losses and income would likely be similar at the federal and state levels.

The state tax returns can only be released under Hoylman’s legislation if requested by any of three committees: The House Ways and Means Committee; the Senate Finance Committee; or the Joint Committee on Taxation. It would likely not contain any information about IRS audits into Trump’s tax returns, a key part of Neal’s request, as those would not be filed in the state returns.

Hoylman, the state senator, said he had consulted extensively with counsel about his legislation and was confident in its legality.

Nobody is more furious than I that Trump lacked the ethics, transparency and respect for Americans to release his returns, but you simpletons celebrating this better be careful what you wish for.

Trump could end all this by just releasing his taxes like every other president. But he's a stupid criminal lying fraudulent tax-cheating money-laundering felon, so no dice. The taxes will come out. They know it, and so do we.

stay together NRSC NRCC GOP the fight is brutal and will intensify as closer to 2020

The more this cry baby stuff stays in the news, the more votes Trump gains. Keep these headlines coming, you're doing a great job.

Common sense: laws are passed for everyone. No one is above the law. NY city can not pass a law targeting a single citizen. The fact that they are passing a law targeting Trump is very unconstitutional.

This would mean we can get anyone’s taxes through congress that lives or works in NY State.

They will lose again. They still have to go through IRS and it’s the same man. Their only option is to go through courts. The courts will rule against them. It’s political witch-hunt plastered all over the news.
