• SB149, by Sen. Mike McGuire, D-Healdsburg, and Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, would require presidential candidates to release the last five years of their tax returns in order to appear on the California ballot. The bill is a response to President Trump refusing to release his tax returns. The bill passed the Senate and heads to the Assembly.
Trump will likely have no opponents in the primary in his reelection and he doesn't care about California (gonna lose it anyways) in the general. Only a swing state can force him to disclose tax returns.
