Democrats Demand Publication of White House & Mar-a-Lago Visitor Logs

HeadlineMar 27, 2017

Democratic lawmakers have introduced a new piece of legislation demanding the Trump administration publish visitor logs, not only for the White House but also for the private resorts where Trump conducts business, including his Florida resort, Mar-a-Lago. The legislation is known as the MAR-A-LAGO Act, which is the acronym for the full title: Making Access Records Available to Lead American Government Openness Act. This past weekend, Trump spent time at the Trump National Golf Club in Virginia—marking the eighth straight weekend the president has spent time at Trump-branded private properties.
