President-elect Donald J. Trump has not submitted a legally required ethics pledge, raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest and hindering his transition to power.
Mr. Trump's transition team has privately drafted an ethics code but did not include required language on how he will address conflicts of interest during his presidency.
The transition team has missed multiple deadlines, preventing access to federal agencies and participation in crucial national security briefings essential for a smooth transition.
Max Stier, president of the Partnership for Public Service, emphasized that avoiding conflicts of interest is critical for the stewardship of public resources and government integrity.
