Ms. Gorelick said earlier this year that it was “very normal” for a financial disclosure form to be revised and that Mr. Kushner’s lawyers had prepared the form on his behalf. The Office of Government Ethics, which is charged with reviewing and certifying administration officials’ financial disclosure forms, didn’t respond to a question about whether it was customary to revise the form to the extent Mr. Kushner did.
Walter Shaub, who resigned as Office of Government Ethics director earlier this month after clashing repeatedly with the White House and who has called for overhauling federal ethics rules, on Friday criticized the White House for installing the agency’s general counsel, David Apol, as acting head of the agency.
Protocol calls for the post to automatically go to the agency’s chief of staff until the president officially appoints a new director. Mr. Shaub said Friday said the move suggested the White House “may be hoping to engineer looser oversight.”
The ethics office and the White House didn’t respond to requests for comment on Mr. Shaub’s complaint.
