After last week’s Washington Post report that Ivanka Trump used a personal email account for official business on hundreds of occasions, American Oversight is continuing its investigation not just into the extent to which the president’s daughter and senior adviser violated records rules, but also into whether such risky actions extended to other officials within Trump’s cabinet.

FOIA to SBA seeking communications from SBA administrator McMahon sent from a non-government email address, as well as any emails forwarded to her government address. This FOIA was filed to see if agency heads are complying with the Presidential Records Act.
