The chairman of the House Oversight Committee said Friday he intends to subpoena President Donald Trump's accountant for his financial records. Cummings' announcement that he intends to subpoena Trump's financial records came two days after the Treasury Department missed a deadline to deliver Trump's tax returns to the House Ways and Means Committee chairman. Neal asked for Trump's returns a week ago. The oversight committee sent a letter to Mazars on March 20 requesting information on how those financial statements and other disclosure documents were prepared. He called the move to subpoena financial records from Trump's accountant "an astonishing abuse" of the committee's authority and a "disgraceful departure" from fair and legitimate oversight.
