Ivanka Trump Also Promised to Resign From Family Business, And Hasnt Filed Paperwork

Source: MSN/Pro Publica

When Donald Trump promised in early January to hand over control of his businesses before becoming president, Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, pledged to do the same thing.

“I will no longer be involved with the management or operations of the Trump Organization,” Ivanka Trump wrote on Facebook. Ivanka said that she would take a “formal leave of absence” when her father was sworn in.

Yet Ivanka is still listed as running Trump businesses on active state liquor licenses in Florida and New York, as of Thursday afternoon. The licenses cover two golf clubs, a resort and a hotel. ProPublica obtained the documents and records through open-records requests.

Being listed on a license means that person is considered the responsible manager of a business. For example, that is who is responsible for business contracts.
