		<description><![CDATA[<p>Rep. Anthony Weiner released some figures from his latest tax filing, making him the first of the prospective 2009 mayoral candidates to do so.</p>
<p>According to his office, Weiner earned $156,588 of income last year, paid $14,368 in New York City and State taxes and $26,381 in federal taxes.</p>
<p>That's more specific than the financial report that city officials are required to file with the city <a href="http://www.nyc.gov/html/conflicts/html/home/home.shtml">Conflict of Interest Board</a>.</p>
<p>Those reports only give amount ranges ($5,000 to $10,000) instead of specific dollar amounts. And they're not always easy to access: unless they're released voluntarily, it takes a Freedom of Information Law request to get to them.</p>
<p>Also, according to a COIB spokesperson, candidates running for mayor only have to file those financial reports for the year in which they're running.</p>
<p>UPDATE: I should have noted that Weiner's full tax return is available, to journalists, upon request.</p>
