So when an individual on a committee asks for something official - specifically in this case Trump's tax returns - does the request have to come from the committee chair, or a request signed by a majority of the committee members? I was hearing today that someone on the the Senate Intel asked for them , but if it's got to come from the chair I won't hold my breath.
