-- What is the definition of "a legitimate legislative purpose?" --

Inquiry for the purpoose of informing a change in law. Not "oversight" or "to decide whether or not to form a committee on imeachment."

Funny thing is, Congress could pass a law that all tax returns be a matter of public record. They iused to be, but that was mighty unpopular, so they had their political necks on the chopping block. This particular privacy has its foundation in legislation.

Thanks. Meanwhile, the OLC and Dem lawyers rehearse arguments for an appeal, if it goes that far. Nadler always wants to be able to say they are doing “something.”
