The refusal by President-elect Trump’s team to sign a transition agreement with the G.S.A. means they are not legally bound to follow through on transparency promises.
Trump's transition has opted for private fundraising and declined a $7.2 million government fund, raising questions about transparency in donor disclosure.
The transition team announced it can save taxpayer dollars by solely using private funding, but did not clarify when or how donor information would be revealed.
While pledging not to accept foreign donations, Trump's team has yet to commit to standard limits on individual donations that were observed in the past.
