House Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings requested a decade's worth of Trump's financial records from his accountant in order, he said, to answer questions recently raised by Trump's former longtime attorney, Michael Cohen.
House Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings, D-Md., has requested a decade's worth of President Donald Trump's financial records from an accounting firm that prepared several years of financial statements for Trump, according to a letter Cummings sent on March 20, but which was only released on Wednesday.
Cummings' letter is addressed to Victor Wahba, CEO of Mazars USA, a New York-based accounting firm that prepared statements of financial condition for Trump covering 2011, 2012 and 2013, that were prepared to help the real estate mogul secure a loan. Michael Cohen, the president's former personal lawyer, turned those documents over to the committee this year ahead of his February 27 testimony.
The documents signed by Mazars, Cummings wrote to Wahba,"raise questions about the President's representations of his financial affairs on these forms and on other disclosures, particularly relating to the President's debts." Wahba was given until April 3 to furnish the requested documents to the committee. It was unclear Wednesday how Mazars plans to respond to Cummings request. A spokeswoman for the firm did not immediately reply to a request for comment Wednesday afternoon from CNBC.
