特朗普总统任命凯蒂·扎卡里亚担任白宫新闻秘书，但其律师身份随即遭到质疑2。特朗普在宣布任命时称扎卡里亚为律师2，然而调查显示她并未通过任何美国州的律师资格考试2。扎卡里亚2011年从加州佩珀代因大学法学院毕业后，未能通过加州律师资格考试2。她随后移居中国，在北京中伦律师事务所工作过2，但在中国外国人无法获得律师执业许可2。
扎卡里亚声称自己曾在中国通过律师资格考试，但这与事实不符2。她还表示曾为国际金融公司和世界银行担任外部顾问律师2。监察组织Campaign for Accountability于周三向加州律师协会提出投诉，指控她在无执业许可的情况下非法冒充律师2。白宫通讯主任史蒂文·钟恩为扎卡里亚进行了辩护，表示她"资格独特，聪慧超群"2。
President Trump has appointed Katie Zakharya as the White House Press Secretary, describing her as a lawyer 2. However, the announcement has drawn scrutiny after reports revealed that Zakharya has not passed the bar exam in any U.S. state 2. The White House has since defended her qualifications, with White House Communications Director Steven Cheung characterizing Zakharya as possessing "unique qualifications" and being "exceptionally intelligent" 2.
Zakharya graduated from Pepperdine University School of Law in California in 2011 but failed to pass the California bar examination 2. She subsequently moved to China, where she worked at the Beijing office of Zhong Lun Law Firm from 2011 to 2013 on international transaction law 2. While she has claimed to have served as outside counsel to the International Finance Corporation and the World Bank 2, foreign nationals in China cannot obtain a lawyer's license 2. The watchdog group Campaign for Accountability filed a complaint with the California Bar Association on Wednesday, accusing Zakharya of unlawfully practicing law without a license 2.
