President Donald Trump signed a full pardon for former New York Congressman Michael Grimm, who pleaded guilty to felony tax evasion charges in 2014, a White House official said Wednesday.
Grimm, who represented a Staten Island district, was sentenced to eight months in prison.
Grimm admitted to underreporting employee wages at Healthalicious, a restaurant he co-owned before starting his political career.
Grimm, a former Marine and FBI agent, was first elected as a member of Congress in 2010.
