Gowdy Demands Answers From Trump Family

New questions have arisen around Ivanka Trump’s use of her private email for official government business. Representative Trey Gowdy wants answers. The outgoing House Oversight Committee Chairman has sent a letter requesting information to White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.

According to Fox News:

Outgoing House Oversight Committee chair Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., sent a letter to White House Chief of Staff John Kelly demanding information on Ivanka Trump’s reported use of personal email.

The letter, obtained by Fox News, follows the Washington Post report claiming that Trump sent hundreds of emails about White House business to contact “White House aides, Cabinet officials and her assistant,” an apparent violation of the Presidential Record Act. The report does not indicate if the emails contained any classified or sensitive government information.

Gowdy said in the letter that Trump’s use of personal email may “implicate the Presidential Records Act and other security and recordkeeping requirements,” and set a Dec. 5 deadline to respond to the request for more information.

“In light of the importance and necessity of preserving the public record and doing so in a manner that is reflective of relevant statutory and regulatory requirements, the Committee must assess whether the White House took adequate steps to archive Ms. Trump’s emails and prevent a recurrence,” Gowdy wrote in the letter.

Trump’s lawyer has pointed out the differences between Ivanka’s email use and that of Hillary Clinton, but it still appears that a bipartisan investigation will happen.
