The election of a president is a matter of vital national concern. This is the first time in modern history when a candidate for a major political party has not released his tax returns for examination by the public. The release of such returns will provide important information to the media and public that will enable everyone to make a more informed decision regarding the choices in the coming election.
This petition seeks that President Obama use his authority to make a written request to the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to Section 6103 of the Internal Revenue Code to furnish Donald Trumps tax returns to the White House, and that the tax returns be made available to the media and public.
