Demonstrably unconstitutional as it establishes an additional test for the office of President.

He’s not going to win Oregon anyway. But I don’t think Oregon can constitutionally do that.

Would not hold up in court. At least the SC.
Otherwise, every state can make some odd litmus test
to be on the ballot.

Funny. The left went in hysterics when proof of the kenyan’s citizenship was requested -even as it IS a constitutional requirement, yet the extremists think they can legislatively amend the Constitutional presidential requirements.

Wow...a state legislature wants to dictate that a Federal tax return be required for a Federal election...neither of which is called for by the Federal Constitution.

A State can now overturn Federal election law?

Proposed law would make Trump reveal tax return to be on Oregon's 2020 ballot Sorry sugar but a state has no standing to make demands on a federal candidate.
Otherwise I am going to propose that all federal candidates be subject to public interrogation while under Sodium Pentothal.

They can’t do this. A few years ago the Supreme Court struck down congressional term limits that had been enacted in several states, saying states cannot add requirements not in the constitution.

This law fails because the candidate is technically NOT on the ballot; the Electors to the Electoral College are on the ballot. The candidate's name is just a convenient label for the slate of Electors.
Since the candidate himself is not being elected, there should be no reason to compel HIS tax forms in order to place someone else on the ballot.
