Washington, USA – A number of Democratic members of the US Congress, led by Senator Adam Schiff, have demanded that President Donald Trump’s administration provide a comprehensive financial statement explaining how the construction of the new concert hall will be funded.
Inside the White House, there are growing questions about the sources of funds used in the project.
Official application
The Washington Post reported that Schiff and several other lawmakers had submitted a formal request to the US administration,
To obtain a “full and detailed breakdown” of expenses and the entities contributing to the funding of the hall,
Which sparked widespread controversy after President Trump announced the amount of money raised for it.
The hall cost $350 million.
Trump recently stated that he had successfully raised more than $350 million to cover the costs of a concert hall project.
Without clarifying whether these funds came from private donations, supporting institutions, or the general budget.
Schiff stressed that “transparency is essential in any project related to the US presidential headquarters.”
Especially if the funding is external or linked to businessmen with political interests.”
He stressed the need for the funding to be subject to a thorough review by the Government Accountability Office.
An architectural achievement
For its part, the Trump administration remained silent regarding the repeated demands.
She merely noted that the ballroom project “represents an architectural achievement befitting
the status of the White House and is fully funded from legal sources.”
Observers believe this issue could open a new front of political debate
between Republicans and Democrats.
Especially in light of the mutual accusations regarding the exploitation of
the position for personal or electoral purposes,
At a time when Washington is experiencing an atmosphere
of sharp polarization ahead of upcoming political events.
