NEW YORK, Sept 2 (Reuters) - A Democratic U.S. senator has pressed Capital One Financial for details about an internal anti-money laundering review that the bank said last month led it to close accounts linked to President Donald Trump and his businesses.
In a letter sent to Capital One CEO Richard Fairbank on Tuesday evening and first reported by Reuters, Senator Maggie Hassan, a New Hampshire Democrat, asked for documents describing the transactions, alerts and other factors that prompted the review, as well as any communications with law enforcement or regulators related to the matter.
"The American people deserve to know," wrote Hassan, the top Democrat on the Joint Economic Committee.
Capital One declined to comment.
