Trump’s daughter Ivanka to get White House office
President Donald Trump’s daughter
Ivanka Trump is to have an office in the White House, her lawyer says. The 35-year-old will have
security clearance and access to classified information, but no official title
or salary when she works in the West Wing.
She will serve as her father’s
“eyes and ears” while providing broad-ranging advice, her attorney told
Politico. Ms Trump, who owns a fashion
brand, will join husband Jared Kushner, who is a senior adviser to the
president.
The US first daughter said in a
statement: “While there is no modern precedent for an adult child of the
president, I will voluntarily follow all of the ethics rules placed on
government employees.
“I will continue to offer my
father my candid advice and counsel, as I have for my entire life.”
After Mr Kushner’s White House
appointment was announced, Ms Trump said she would focus on settling her family
in Washington rather than work for the administration.
Her step-mother, First Lady
Melania Trump, has so far chosen to stay in New York with Mr Trump’s youngest
son.
