“I have heard the concerns some have with my advising the president in my personal capacity while voluntarily complying with all ethics rules.
“And I will instead serve as an unpaid employee in the White House Office, subject to all of the same rules as other federal employees.

“Throughout this process, I have been working closely and in good faith with the White House Counsel and my personal counsel to address the unprecedented nature of my role,” Ivanka said.

Ivanka’s role as ‘First Daughter’ in support of the President is unprecedented.
