The Trump-Vance Transition team has officially entered into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Department of Justice, as confirmed by a statement from the President-elect Donald Trump’s chief of staff. This MOU outlines the terms of cooperation between the transition team and the DOJ, marking a significant milestone in the preparation of the incoming administration.
One key aspect of this agreement is that it enables the Trump team to request FBI background checks on Trump’s appointees. The transition team can now submit names for background checks and security clearances, streamlining the vetting process for potential candidates.
