Trump pardons former New York lawmaker Michael Grimm
By REUTERS MAY 29, 2025 01:02
US President Donald Trump signed a full pardon for former U.S. Representative Michael Grimm of New York, who had pleaded guilty to a felony tax evasion charge in 2014, a White House official said on Wednesday.
A Republican like Trump, Grimm represented districts that included Staten Island and a small portion of southern Brooklyn. He was sentenced to eight months in prison and served seven months in 2015 and 2016.

The former congressman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Grimm admitted to under-reporting employee wages at Healthalicious, a restaurant he co-owned before starting his political career.
