Democrats Ask Goldman Sachs CEO Why He’s Keeping Lawyer Who Said She’d Resign over Ties to Epstein
The lawmakers want Goldman to explain Ruemmler’s role, duties and pay after DOJ records linked her to Jeffrey Epstein.
- On Wednesday, Senator Elizabeth Warren and Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi sent a letter to Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon questioning his reported decision to retain Kathryn Ruemmler as an adviser following her planned resignation.
- Ruemmler announced her resignation in February after Justice Department documents revealed she accepted gifts from Epstein and advised him on media strategies, though Goldman Sachs previously maintained her relationship with the financier was professional.
- The lawmakers' letter claims information uncovered in recent months "raises serious questions" regarding Goldman's due diligence and Ruemmler's "professional judgement and fitness" to lead the bank, requesting responses by June 26.
- Reports indicate Goldman hired Terakeet, a reputation management firm, to improve Ruemmler's search results, while internal dissent reportedly led to chief of staff Russell Horwitz's departure at month's end.
- The House Oversight Committee is scheduled to interview Ruemmler behind closed doors on July 15 as part of its ongoing investigation into Epstein and his financial ties.
