President Donald Trump is
refusing to adequately address his
unprecedented conflicts of interest and put his assets into a blind trust. And Republicans in Congress are abandoning their responsibility to serve as a check on the executive branch.
unprecedented conflicts of interest and put his assets into a blind trust. And Republicans in Congress are abandoning their responsibility to serve as a check on the executive branch.
Especially given the dark cloud already hanging
over this administration and its potential ties to Russian election meddling, it's
critically important that the American people know if our President is
receiving money from foreign governments.
That's why we must call on the House
Oversight Committee, and its Republican leader Trey Gowdy to use Congress's
oversight role to fully investigate the President's conflicts and overseas
business ties. The Democrats wouldn't have to sue if Congress was doing its job
-- and we should use this moment to push them into action.
Americans agree that strong oversight is
necessary to ensure that public servants look to their time in government as a
way of contributing to society, not a way of enriching themselves and their
friends.
