Will Ivanka Trump Work In White House? Trump’s Daughter Appears To Take Formal Tasks In Washington
President Donald Trump’s eldest daughter Ivanka Trump seems to taking formal tasks in Washington, D.C., by hosting a dinner party and accompanying her father to his official trips. Ivanka is starting to work toward the women’s economic empowerment agenda she promoted on Trump’s election campaign, Politico reported Thursday.
Ivanka has been active in the transition since her father won the presidential election. She also joined Trump on his call with Argentina’s president Mauricio Macri and sat in on his meeting with Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
Last month, Ivanka quit her executive position at the Trump Organization and separated from her fashion line to be with her father and her husband Jared Kushner, who is a White House senior adviser.
After her father won presidential election, it was reported that Ivanka would not take on a role in the White House and will concentrate on settling her family in Washington, D.C. Ivanka and Kushner were also reported to take their wide-ranging financial portfolios before moving to the country’s capital from New York and face inevitable questions about a potential conflict of interest.
Ivanka hosted a dinner party with a group of CEOs at her new house in Washington, D.C.’s Kalorama area, with an aim to seek ideas on ways to promote women in the workforce and paid maternity leave , according to Politico. The report noted that, Thursday’s dinner party marked Ivanka’s attempt in politics, since moving to Washington, D.C.
The part was reportedly attended by Walmart CEO Doug McMillon; General Motors CEO Mary Barra; Ernst & Young CEO Mark Weinberger; Johnson & Johnson CEO Alex Gorsky; investment banker Adebayo Ogunlesi; JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon; Trump’s head of the National Economic Council, Gary Cohn; and Dina Powell, the former Goldman Sachs partner, who now serves as the president’s senior counselor for economic initiatives.
