A House committee is set to release six years of Donald Trump’s tax returns on Friday, revealing financial records that the former president fought for years to keep secret.

The Democratic-controlled House Ways and Means Committee voted last week to release the returns, with some redactions of sensitive information, such as Social Security numbers and contact information.
