2016 Trump Campaign Settles Nondisclosure Agreement for $450,000
FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD J. Trump’s 2016 campaign will pay $450,000 as part of a years-long legal battle over nondisclosure agreements it required employees to sign, Bloomberg reported.The settlement with Jessica Denson—whom the campaign tried to silence after the former staffer sued for sex discrimination and harassment— effectively nixes the nondisclosure agreements that hundreds of workers signed.
“Thanks to the court, this is another victory for truth and transparency. The Trump Campaign can hide nothing now, not even the real price they’ve agreed to pay for our tireless and victorious battle against their forced silence,” Denson said in a statement, per the report.
Last month, the campaign agreed to release all former staffers, volunteers and contractors from nondisclosure and non-disparagement agreements they signed in order to work for Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.
