Resume Shows Trump Appointee Falsified Credentials

The official resume of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) official Lynne Patton – who was chosen by President Trump to lead HUD’s New York region – shows that she deliberately misrepresented her education at both Yale University and Quinnipiac University Law School when she applied for the job.

Patton’s resume was obtained and released by American Oversight through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

American Oversight launched an investigation into the political appointees selected by Trump to run the federal government – sending FOIA requests to nearly two dozen federal agencies seeking the names, titles, resumes, and any ethics waivers of new Trump administration officials. The records obtained through those FOIA requests have been posted HERE.
