Paul Ryan Releases Data on His Giving

Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney's vice-presidential running mate, has released his most recent tax returns, showing that he reported $2,600 in charitable donations in 2010 and nearly $13,000 in donations in 2011, the Associated Press reports.

The tax returns do not list the specific groups Mr. Ryan and his wife, Janna, supported, but the Romney campaign said the couple's charitable contributions have gone to groups such as the Boy Scouts of America and Junior Achievement. They also supported Women & Children's Horizons, which helps victims of sexual abuse and domestic violence, and Care Net, which counsels pregnant women on alternatives to abortion.

The couple's returns are available online.
