Summary

Jared Kushner, appointed as special envoy for peace, has reportedly failed to file required financial disclosures within the legal 30-day deadline and has not divested from Affinity Partners despite calls to do so, potentially violating the Ethics in Government Act. The concern is heightened as Kushner appears to be soliciting billions from foreign governments including Saudi Arabia, raising questions about conflicts of interest given his prior role in Middle East policy decisions.

    A month ago, we noted that Jared Kushner’s appointment as special envoy for peace meant he would need to file a financial disclosure so that he could resolve potential conflicts of interest and called on him to proactively divest from Affinity Partners. He hasn’t.🧵

    We also sent a letter to the White House counsel demanding that Kushner comply with the law by filing the mandated disclosures within 30 days of his appointment—which passed on March 21st. citizensforethics.org/legal-action/l…

    Since then, Kushner appears not to have done so. Unless he got an extension from the White House ethics official, that would put him in violation of the Ethics in Government Act. citizensforethics.org/news/press-rel…

    Given Kushner’s role in convincing Trump to attack Iran—just as the Saudi government wanted—the necessity of disclosure and divestment is not only obvious but urgent.

    Unfortunately, Kushner appears to be moving in the opposite direction. He’s reportedly soliciting billions more from foreign governments, including the Saudis, which are already his biggest investors. nytimes.com/2026/03/13/bus…

    Senator Wyden and Rep. Garcia are investigating. That’s a good step toward oversight of this outrageous scandal. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/news/press-rel…

    Americans need answers. The president's son-in-law is not exempt from ethics law just because Trump prefers to keep the details of his role vague and secretive. We’ll keep pushing Kushner to disclose his interests and divest as needed for as long as it takes.
