Story summary

Katie Miller, wife of incoming White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, has stepped down from her role at SpaceX and sold her shares in the company. This move was prompted by her husband's new responsibilities, easing ethics restrictions that had previously required him to recuse himself from certain policy discussions involving areas like space and artificial intelligence due to conflicts of interest with his wife's business ties. According to a White House official quoted by The Atlantic, Stephen Miller is now "no longer subject to any recusals" and can fully participate in all meetings and policy matters at the White House. Katie Miller has also ended a planned podcast arrangement with Paramount that had similarly led to ethical concerns for her husband.
