Nadler to probe Trump's G-7 resort pitch
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) announced Wednesday his panel will broaden its investigation into President Trump to include his proposal to hold the 2020 Group of Seven (G-7) summit at one of his family-owned properties in Florida.
Nadler said the president's pitch to host next year's meeting of world leaders at Trump National Doral Miami is "only the latest in a troubling pattern of corruption and self-dealing by the President" and may violate both the foreign and domestic Emoluments Clauses.
"The President's personal financial interests are clearly shaping decisions about official U.S. government activities, and this is precisely the type of risk that the Constitution's Emoluments Clauses were intended to prevent," Nadler said in a statement.
"More importantly, the Doral decision reflects perhaps the first publicly known instance in which foreign governments would be required to pay President Trump's private businesses in order to conduct business with the United States," Nadler added.
