Democrats Urge Special Counsel to Probe Jared Kushner's Saudi Ties

Lawmakers allege Kushner acted as an unregistered foreign agent, citing Saudi investments in his firm and his advisory role to the Saudi Crown Prince.

Senator Ron Wyden and Representative Jamie Raskin have called for an investigation into Jared Kushner's business dealings with Saudi Arabia.
The request comes after reports of Kushner's discussions with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on U.S.-Saudi relations involving Israel.
Kushner's firm, Affinity Partners, received a $2 billion investment from the Saudi Public Investment Fund after he left the White House.
Lawmakers claim Kushner's activities may violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), which requires disclosure of foreign influence.
Kushner and his allies have dismissed the allegations as politically motivated, especially with the presidential election approaching.
