Biden's Team Ready to Assist Transition Despite Trump's Unsigned Agreements

President-elect Joe Biden's administration is prepared to assist with the transition process, despite President Trump's team not signing necessary agreements. Biden has invited Trump to the White House, but no date has been set.

Trump's team, led by co-chairs Howard Lutnick and Linda McMahon, has not engaged in the formal pre-election transition process due to unsigned agreements. These agreements, known as memoranda of understanding (MOU), would enable them to fully participate in government efforts and receive government support.

White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients spoke to Trump's transition team on Wednesday, but it's unclear which individuals within the team have declared their intention to sign the required documents. Congress has appropriated funding to support Trump's transition efforts, contingent on the signing of the MOU. However, Trump's team has not yet signed the agreements to access federal funds and agencies.

Biden's administration is ready to assist with the transition, but the process is hindered by the unsigned agreements. Trump's team has expressed intent to participate, and a meeting at the White House is planned, but no date has been set. The situation remains uncertain as Trump's team has not yet signed the necessary documents to fully engage in the transition process.
