Prof. Jack Pitney was quoted in an article on Gov. Gavin Newsom’s pledge to release his tax returns, but the Governor has not done so since 2020. He offered the following insight, “Governor Newsom is not on the ballot in 2024, so he does not face a great deal of political pressure to release his returns. Democrats are not pressing him on the issue. Republicans have little standing to do so, since Trump released his returns to a congressional committee only after losing a fight at the Supreme Court.”
