(UTV|COLOMBO) – A US government oversight agency has said White House aide Kellyanne Conway should be fired for engaging in banned political activities while in office.
The Office of Special Counsel said Mrs Conway violated the Hatch Act, which bans federal employees from campaigning for candidates while on the job.
The watchdog cited “numerous occasions” in which she violated the law, calling her a “repeat offender”.
The White House dismissed the advice as “deeply flawed” and “unprecedented”.
