California Supreme Court Strikes Down Presidential Tax Return Law

A state law requiring presidential candidates to release tax returns was deemed invalid, marking a victory for President Trump. An appeals court denied blocking his financial documents from being turned over to the House. The Chief Justice noted the California law conflicted with the Constitution. Governor Newsom's Presidential Tax Transparency Act mandates candidates release IRS returns before elections. A federal judge blocked this law, citing constitutional concerns and potential precedents.
