President Trump’s lawyers are appealing a U.S. district judge’s ruling that rejected the president’s request that congressional inquiries into Trump’s banking records be blocked, according to The Washington Post.
The judge’s decision cleared the way for Deutsche Bank, the president’s biggest creditor, and Capital One to hand over years of financial records from Trump, his three eldest children and the Trump Organization to two House committees, reports the Post‘s Renae Merle.
“The [congressional] committees’ subpoenas are sweeping and unprecedented attempts to obtain the private financial information of a sitting President,” the appeal to the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said.
