Dems plan bill forcing Trump to divest

Published



Five Democratic senators plan to introduce a bill in January requiring President-elect Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence to release information on, and divest from, any conflicts of interest.

Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Ben Cardin, Chris Coons, Dick Durbin and Jeff Merkley are all co-sponsors on the legislation that would require Trump and Pence to tell the American people about any financial conflicts of interest, and abandon those interests while in office.
