Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), a member of the Senate’s GOP leadership, said Thursday that he is postponing two of President Donald Trump’s nominees until he gets answers on several Inspector General firings.
Grassley, who is the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, wrote on Twitter that it’s not the first time he has “raised alarms” when administrations “flout IG protection law(s).” He also raised concerns about President Barack Obama’s firing of then-inspector general Gerald Walpin in 2009.
