(JTA) – Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and a top White House adviser, lacks the highest level of security clearance. Kushner received a permanent “top secret” security clearance in late May, which does not allow him to review some of the government’s most sensitive secrets, The Washington Post reported July 13, citing two people familiar with his access. Kushner may not review “sensitive compartmented information,” known as SCI, which primarily involves U.S. intelligence sources and surveillance methods, according to the newspaper. Thus, Kushner has been prevented from seeing some parts of the president’s Daily Brief, a highly classified summary of world events that sometimes describes intelligence programs and operatives. Kushner attorney Abbe Lowell would not confirm Kushner’s clearance level to the newspaper. He said the White House handled Kushner’s security clearance according to the standard process and that Kushner has sufficient access to do his job.

In February, Kushner’s clearance was downgraded from top secret to secret following a temporary clearance. The reason for the downgrade was not clear, but reports at the time noted that his family real estate business was in debt and his widespread global investments would make a businessman like him vulnerable to foreign influence.

Kushner, who is an Orthodox Jew and is married to Trump’s daughter Ivanka, advises the president on issues including the Middle East.
