The Latest: Trump campaign statement appears to violate law
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on White House and Trump campaign staff (all times local):
3:15 p.m.
A statement released by the Trump campaign attributed to White House senior adviser Jared Kushner Tuesday is in seeming violation of federal law prohibiting the use of official titles in political work.
The campaign had used Kushner's title and his position as an "assistant to the president" in its press release announcing Brad Parscale as the campaign manager for the 2020 re-election effort. The title has been removed from the copy of the release posted to the campaign website after questions from the Associated Press.
The Hatch Act bars government employees from using their official titles in political work.
