THE WHITE HOUSE: Allegations of Damage During the 2001 Presidential Transition

Abstract

This report discusses the alleged damage at the White House during the 2001 presidential transition. GAO agreed to determine (1) whether damage, vandalism, or pranks occurred in the White House and the adjacent Eisenhower Executive Office Building (EEOB) during the transition by obtaining the observations of Executive Office of the President (EOP) staff and preparers of White House office space during the transition and reviewing any available documentation, as well as obtaining the comments of former Clinton administration staff; (2) to the extent possible, how the 2001 presidential transition compared with previous presidential transitions in terms of damage, vandalism, or pranks; and (3) what steps, if any, should be taken to help prevent and document any vandalism during future presidential transitions.
