伊凡卡正式入职白宫

Ivanka Trump is making her White House job official

Ivanka Trump is changing course and will become a government employee in the coming days. President Donald Trump's eldest daughter will be an unpaid employee working in the West Wing.

伊万卡·特朗普（Ivanka Trump）正在改变路线，并将在未来几天后成为政府的雇员。唐纳德·特朗普总统的大女儿将是在西翼工作的无薪雇员。

"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," Ivanka Trump said in a statement. "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 Trump在一份声明中说：“我听到有些人对我自愿遵守所有道德规则的向总统提供顾问的个人能力感到担忧。 我将在白宫办的公室担任无薪雇员，也会像其他联邦政府的员工一样遵守一切规则。”伊凡卡还表示， “在整个过程中，我一直在与白宫律师和我的私人律师密切真诚合作，以表明我前所未有的身份特性。”

A source with knowledge of the decision told CNN the decision was made after the "unease" expressed by people about the nature of her voluntary role, and ethics advocates Norm Eisen and Fred Wertheimer had sent White House counsel Don McGhan a letter last Friday.

知情人告诉CNN，这个决定是在人们对伊凡卡的自愿角色性质所表达的“不安”之后做出的，同时伦理倡导者 Norm Eisen and Fred Wertheimer在上个星期五已经向白宫律师Don McGhan 送达了一封信 。

Now, Ivanka Trump will be an "adviser" to the President, and will file her own Form 278, which means she is legally bound by the ethics rules.

现在，伊万卡·特朗普将是总统的“顾问”，并将填写她自己的278表格，这意味着她受到道德规则的法律约束。

An unsigned statement from the White House said: "We are pleased that Ivanka Trump has chosen to take this step in her unprecedented role as first daughter and in support of the President."

白宫的一份未经签名的声明说：“我们很高兴Ivanka Trump选择通过这一步作为她同时身为第一女儿和总统幕僚的前所未有的角色。”

Trump's attorney, Jamie S. Gorelick, said: "Ivanka's decision reflects both her commitment to compliance with federal ethics standards and her openness to opposing points of view. She will file the financial disclosure forms required of federal employees and be bound by the same ethics rules that she had planned to comply with voluntarily."

特朗普的律师Jamie S. Gorelick说：“伊万卡的决定反映了她对遵守联邦道德标准的承诺，也反映了她对反对观点的开放性承诺，她将提交联邦雇员的财务披露表，并接受她计划自愿工作而与其他联邦员工同样的道德约束规则。“

Jared Kushner, Ivanka's husband and a top Trump aide, is also serving the White House as an unpaid government employee.

Ivanka的丈夫Jared Kushner,也是特朗普高级助手，现在也为白宫担任无薪政府雇员。
