Three Democratic senators sent a letter to White House counsel Don McGahn asking why the administration decided to publish the personal information of citizens who voiced concerns about President Trump’s voter fraud commission and questioning whether publication of that information was retribution against those who criticized the panel.
“In today’s digital world, where personal information in the wrong hands can lead to unwanted intrusions into people’s lives, we find it particularly concerning that the White House would intentionally release personal information without express consent and without adequately informing people that their information would be released,” Sens. Dianne Feinstein of California, Sherrod Brown of Ohio, and Ron Wyden of Oregon wrote. “Especially so soon after the personally identifying data of nearly every U.S. voter belonging to the Republican National Committee was exposed online.”
