The Interior Department’s internal watchdog said on Monday it had launched an investigation into several allegations of ethics violations by Interior Secretary David Bernhardt, less than a week after the Senate confirmed him to the position.
Interior’s ethics office has already reviewed the accusations “and determined that Secretary Bernhardt is in complete compliance with his ethics agreement and all applicable laws, rules and regulations,” Interior spokesperson Faith Vander Voort said. “Secretary Bernhardt is hopeful the inspector general will expeditiously complete a review of the facts associated with the questions raised by Democratic Members of Congress and D.C. political organizations.
