Sen. Bernie Sanders said Thursday that he won’t be releasing his personal finance records after twice delaying their release during the campaign, despite his constant call on the campaign trail for public accountability and transparency about money in politics.

“We were told that since the senator no longer is a candidate, there was no requirement to file,” Briggs said.
