John Kasich releases tax returns
On Saturday, Ohio Gov. John Kasich released seven years worth of tax returns, leaving Donald Trump as the only Republican candidate yet to furnish his tax information.
The returns show that Kasich and his wife, Karen, made $5 million between 2008 and 2014, and paid an effective federal tax rate of 24.3 percent, Kasich's campaign said. He received income from Lehman Brothers, where he was a senior executive, Fox News for commentary, public speaking gigs, investment, and his salary as governor of Ohio, CNN reports.
In January, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) released the first two pages of summaries of their returns. Trump says he hasn't released his returns because he is being audited.
