Dems Ask FBI to Suspend Kushner’s Security Clearance
A group of House Democrats is asking the FBI to suspend White House senior adviser and President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner’s security clearance.
In a letter to FBI Director James Comey, the lawmakers cited Kushner’s failure to disclose some of his contacts with Russian government officials when he filled out an application for a security clearance.
A lawyer for Kushner says the omissions were an “administrative error.”
