California enacted a law this week that requires presidential candidates to submit five years of income-tax filings to be eligible for the state's primary ballot, the Los Angeles Times reported.
My question is, is this Constitutional, for the Constitution only list 3 requirements to run for POTUS. Can California subvert the Constitution in this manner, I guess we'll have to wait and see how this pans out in court, because you know it's going to be headed that way.
California just passed a law requiring Trump to release his tax returns in order to be on the primary ballot
Newspapers, news shows and opinion broadcasts have been flooded with discussions on this issue since Newsom signed it. Your point about extending federal law was brought up several times, one or two recalled a few years ago when Arizona tried to extend federal law on immigration. Others are talking disenfranchisement, equal protections and various other things.
