Ethics office tweets in middle of Tom Price hearing

The Office of Government Ethics Wednesday sent a series of four tweets outlining its procedures examining incoming Trump administration officials — right in the middle of a contentious Senate hearing about Rep. Tom Price’s stock transactions. The tweets came less than an hour after Price — Preisdent-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to be secretary of Health and Human Services — defended himself against questions about his stock transactions at a Senate hearing and invoked the ethics office’s approval.
