Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders released his 2014 tax return Friday, one day after promising to do so in the Brooklyn debate. Sanders and his wife, Jane, reported an adjusted gross income of about $205,000.
Earlier in April, Sanders told Jake Tapper he hadn't released the full return because Jane does their taxes and they've been "a little bit busy lately."
The couple donated $8,350 to charity, which CBS News reports is about half the percentage of income that opponent Hillary Clinton and her husband, Bill, did.
