On Monday Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley was part of a group of senators that introduced the Scrutinizing White House Activities that Make Profits Act of 2019.
A release from Merkley said the SWAMP Act would prohibit any multilateral summits or meetings with foreign heads of state from being held at Trump Organization-owned properties.
The release said the SWAMP Act follows President Trump’s recent attempt to host the G-7 summit at his Trump National Doral Miami golf resort. While President Trump backed down on the that plan last weekend, he has not stated that he will not try to hold future summits at Doral or other Trump properties, according to the release.
Merkley said “Trump’s attempt to hold the G-7 at his own resort was corrupt. It was a violation of the constitution. It was an abuse of power. And we must put an end to his self-dealing”. Merkley said the fact that the President thinks its okay to write himself a check from taxpayer money and foreign governments “shows the absolute depth of his corruption”.
