US lawmakers introduce bill to force Trump publish visitor logs
Washington, Mar 13 (Sputnik/UNI): A new bill in the US Congress would force President Donald Trump to publish official visitor logs of the White House and other locations where he regularly conducts official business, Congressman Mike Quigley and Senator Tom Udall said in a joint news release.
"The MAR-A-LAGO Act is about upholding the integrity of the Oval Office and, based on this president’s track record, we know that transparency is not a priority of his, making public access to these visitor logs an absolute necessity," Quigley said in the release on Tuesday.
Senator Udall noted that the American people have a right to know who has leverage over this administration and who is influencing policy decisions.
If passed, the Making Access Records Available to Lead American Government Openness (MAR-A-LAGO) Act, which was first introduced during the 115th Congress, would requires the publication of official visitor logs 90 days after their creation.
