A legal group is suing Trump for his alleged breach of the Constitution.
A legal watchdog group says it will file a lawsuit alleging that President Donald Trump is violating the Constitution by allowing his businesses to accept payments from foreign governments.
The group says he is violating a clause in the Constitution that prohibits his businesses from receiving anything of value from foreign governments. Because he didn’t divest his businesses, they say, he is now getting gifts from foreign governments via guests and events at his hotels, leases in his buildings and real estate deals abroad.
White House Director of Strategic Communications Hope Hicks directed inquiries to Trump attorney Sheri Dillon.
“She was very clear on this issue two weeks ago and nothing has changed; the president has no conflicts,” Hicks said in an email.
The liberal-funded watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington said they planned to file the lawsuit in the Southern District of New York on Monday.
