State Attorney General Orders Trump Foundation to Cease Raising Money in New York
By STEVE EDEROCT. 3, 2016
The office of New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman has issued a notice of violation to Donald J. Trumps foundation, ordering it to immediately stop soliciting donations in New York.
The letter, which was sent on Friday and released on Monday morning by Mr. Schneidermans office, said that its charities bureau had determined that the Donald J. Trump Foundation had been fund-raising in New York this year when it was not registered to do so under state law.
The Trump Foundation must immediately cease soliciting contributions or engaging in any other fund-raising activities in New York, wrote James Sheehan, the chief of the charities bureau.
Mr. Trumps foundation has come under increasing scrutiny amid questions about his fulfillment of large charitable pledges and his lack of financial support in recent years.
