Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The President of the United States (USA), Donald Trump, finally opened the door to the transition to the administration of President-elect Joe Biden. The United States Public Services Administration (GSA) finally opened federal resources for the transition after the lockdown for weeks, on Monday (11/23/2020) evening local time.
This is a big surprise. Even Trump, still resisting Biden’s victory, acknowledged that it was time for the GSA to “do what needs to be done.”
In her letter, GSA Director Emily Murphy said she had released more than $ 7 million in funding. Under federal law, the head of the GSA has the power to waive funds earmarked for presidential transition expenses.
“Today’s decision is a necessary step to begin addressing the challenges facing our nation, including controlling the pandemic and getting our economy back on track,” Biden’s transition team said in a statement. CNBC International, Tuesday (11/24/2020).
“This final decision is the final administrative act to formally initiate the transition process with federal agencies.”
The GSA has come under fire and criticism from the public, as well as from lawmakers, who have insisted on asking the agency to guarantee Biden’s victory and allow his team to use the funds. The report on the weakening of the GSA was published for the first time CNN International.
Meanwhile, on Twitter, Trump still refused to give up on the election results. “Our case continues, we will continue to fight well and I am sure we will win.” leave in the account @realDonaldTrump.
