After a protracted legal fight and relentless obstruction by the former president, the House Ways and Means Committee on Friday finally released six years of Donald Trump's tax returns.

"It is a bittersweet moment," Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.), a member of the House Ways and Means Oversight Subcommittee, said[1] Friday, lamenting how long it took for lawmakers to obtain the documents and make them public. "I will read through them today and you should too. Every American deserves this sunlight. This is what democracy is about."

A download link for the returns, which span 2015 to 2020, is here[2] (warning: the file is very large—1.1 GB—and in zip format).

"Donald Trump attempted to hijack the United States government to keep himself in power, and American democracy almost didn't survive. His tax returns may have been another part of that effort," Noah Bookbinder, the president of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, wrote[3] for The Atlantic on Friday. "That merits investigation—not over another six years, but now."
