White House rejects Democrats' request for Jared Kushner's security clearance documents
Washington The White House rejected a demand from the House Oversight Committee to turn over documents and comply with interviews concerning the security clearances of some of President Donald Trump's closest advisers, including Trump senior adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner.
The refusal to provide the documents increases the likelihood that House Oversight Chairman Elijah Cummings will issue a subpoena for the information. Cummings told CNN on Tuesday that"when you cannot get information, you cannot be a check," and said Trump's administration is"reluctant" to give the committee"the information that we need to do our job.
