A federal appeals court ruled on Nov. 13 that House Democrats can obtain President Donald Trump’s financial records.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, voting 8–3, denied a petition from Trump’s lawyers for a rehearing by the full court. Seven judges appointed by Democratic presidents and Judge Thomas Griffith, who was appointed by Republican President George W. Bush, voted against Trump, while all three of those voting for the rehearing were Republican appointees.
