White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre Accused of Violating Federal Law Intended to Prevent Election Interference

Karine Jean-Pierre, White House press secretary, has been accused of violating the Hatch Act, a federal law intended to prevent federal employees from using their offices to influence elections. The government watchdog agency has written a letter to Jean-Pierre, who has responded by saying the White House counsel will review her violation. It is unclear what action, if any, will be taken against Jean-Pierre.
