Trump Team Agrees to Federal Transition Assistance Amid Delays
TL;DR Summary
The Trump transition team is expected to accept federal assistance from the General Services Administration (GSA) for the presidential transition, despite earlier considerations to forgo this support. This decision aligns with the Presidential Transition Act, which provides resources like office space and IT services, but limits private donations. Concerns had been raised about transparency and security if the GSA's help was rejected. The transition is led by Howard Lutnick and Linda McMahon, with ongoing discussions between Trump and Biden administration lawyers.
