Rep. Bill Pascrell on Trump Not Submitting Tax Returns: There Are Fines and There’s Jail

‘The law is on our side, very clear’

EXCERPT:

PASCRELL: "Well, I think that our great Chairman Richie Neal has gone methodically to this with some criticism from those who want to push this issue. I’ve only been working on it since February the 1st, 2017. I've stayed with it when we were in the minority. And we're following procedure under 61031f in the tax code. But we should remember and the White House should remember and Mr. Mnuchin should remember as our Treasury Secretary that 71 -- 7214 in the code is even clearer. As to what happens if you do not hand over the tax returns. There are fines, there is jail, there is etc. — this is serious business.”
