Overview
- Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Melanie Stansbury led a Sept. 17 inquiry questioning if Sacks surpassed the 130-day cap that governs Special Government Employees.
- Their letter cites calculations placing his 130th day on May 29 if counting calendar days or July 25 if counting business days, noting the administration had reached at least its 166th business day by the letter’s date.
- The request seeks, within two weeks, a complete accounting of days worked, where official duties were performed, and who monitors his compliance.
- Democrats highlight White House waivers that let Sacks keep ties to Craft Ventures investing in AI and crypto, arguing the flexibility depends on strictly temporary service.
- A spokesperson for Sacks said he remains under the limit and carefully manages his days, as reported by CoinCentral, while multiple outlets reported no immediate comment from the White House.
