Chuck Schumer says he is placing a hold on Trump DOJ nominees amid questions on Qatar's luxury jet gift
(NBC News) WASHINGTON — Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Tuesday he is placing a hold on all Trump Justice Department nominees as he seeks answers on the administration's plan to accept a luxury jet from Qatar to be used as Air Force One.
"In light of the deeply troubling news of a possible Qatari-funded Air Force One, and the reports that the Attorney General personally signed off on this clearly unethical deal, I am announcing a hold on all DOJ political nominees, until we get more answers,” Schumer said on the Senate floor.
The minority leader presented a list of questions and demands he says the Trump administration must respond to before he lifts his hold on nominees.
