Connolly Statement on Reports GSA IG Is Reviewing Trump Hotel Lease

Washington, August 29, 2017

Congressman Gerry Connolly (D-VA), Vice Ranking Member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, released the following statement on reports the GSA's Office of Inspector General is reviewing the Trump organization's lease at the Trump International Hotel:

“As soon as the President was sworn in the Trump Organization was in violation of its lease. The language in the lease makes absolutely clear that no elected official can benefit from the contract. GSA’s determination otherwise is confounding and taints this Administration. This review by the Inspector General is important and must be free of any interference.”
