Dem senator calls for probe into Trump modeling company
Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) wants the Obama administration to investigate a modeling company founded by GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.
Boxer on Wednesday sent a letter to León Rodriguez, the director of the Citizenship and Immigration Service, saying she was concerned after former models told Mother Jones that the company skirted immigration and labor laws.
"I am extremely concerned by the claims levied against Trump Model Management and ask that you open an investigation into the company's employment practices," Boxer wrote in the letter.
"I hope you will make clear that immigration and labor violations like these will not be tolerated."
Boxer added that the Mother Jones article indicates "widespread noncompliance with immigration and labor laws by Trump Model Management" and that models were brought to the United States without proper visas.
