[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Dana Baiocco ? Dana Baiocco  President Donald Trumpâs pick to sit on the Consumer Product Safety Commission  made her name helping companies avoid responsibility for harmful products. A partner at law firm Jones Day   Baiocco  has represented big tobacco and fought in court against asbestos workers who developed mesothelioma.
But the cases  she âs litigated that may conflict most directly with the CPSCâs mission of protecting the public from dangerous products involve all-terrain vehicles. While the CPSC was leading a campaign over ATV safety   Baiocco  was representing Yamaha in several suits over  its  two-person Rhino ATV.
 Baiocco âs appointment would put Republican appointments in the majority of the five-person commission  which could halt or reverse progress on a number of issues  including restrictions on off-highway vehicles  a category that includes ATVs. âIndustry very much wants the agency to abandon that rule-making â said Rachel Weintraub  legislative director and general counsel for the Consumer Federation of America. âAnd once there is a Republican majority  that may happen.â
In a letter  Baiocco  sent to the CPSC special counsel last month  she said she would recuse herself from âany particular matter in which I know that I have a financial interest directlyâ and issues that are of direct interest to her husbandâs firm  White and Williams. The letter didnât specifically address ATVs or Ikea dressers.
Remington A. Gregg  counsel for civil justice and consumer rights at Public Citizen  said  Baiocco  should âabsolutely recuse herselfâ from those and âany products sheâs worked on.â
Itâs unclear how many of those products she might encounter as a CPSC commissioner. In addition to Yamaha   Baiocco  who has worked at Jones Day since 1998   has defended R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company in a class-action suit filed on behalf of smokers in Florida. According to a financial disclosure form she submitted to the Senate   Baiocco  received at least $5 000 âin a yearâ from 13 clients  including R.J. Reynolds  Volkswagen AG  and the chemical manufacturer Daikin Industries  in addition to  her  more than $1.2 million salary from Jones Day.  She  also represented Honeywell Safety Products in a suit filed by the survivors of a worker who developed mesothelioma after being exposed to asbestos at the World Trade Center site.  Her  client list also includes airplane parts manufacturer Parker Hannifin  which  she âs represented in wrongful death cases involving 13 people  including the late Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan.
 Baiocco  and the White House did not respond to requests for comment.
Consumer advocates will be closely watching Baioccoâs confirmation hearing in the Senate Commerce Committee  which is scheduled for Wednesday. âWe want to hear that  she âs actually concerned about health and safety and that  she  would work to protect our families â said Gregg. â Her  career shows the opposite.â

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Hope Hicks ? Hope Hicks  29  is President Donald Trump's full-time White House communications director. But before joining Trump's 2016 campaign  she had no political experience.
 Hicks  was born in Greenwich  a town of 60 000 on the southwest tip of Connecticut that's a favorite spot for hedge-fund headquarters.
 Hicks  didn't intend on playing such a large role in a presidential campaign  instead falling into the gig through a job at the Trump Organization.
And  Hicks  has been with Trump — to use  his  words — "from the beginning." She stuck on  his  campaign through several staff revamps  including two high-profile changes at the campaign-chair position.
Here's what we know about  Hicks .
[EX A]: Positive

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Kushner ? As chief executive of  his  familyâs real estate empire   Jared Kushner  planned two apartment projects across the street from each other in Jersey City.
Both would be luxury skyscrapers  complete with retail space and sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline. A new crosswalk would connect them  intended to link the two Kushner Cos. developments practically and visually.
But when  Kushner  prepared an ethics plan ahead of joining the White House as a top adviser to  his  father-in-law  President Trump  he drew a curious distinction between the two projects. He sold his stake in one while keeping his share of up to $5 million in the other.
 Kushner   36  who is emerging as a singularly powerful figure in the Trump White House  is keeping nearly 90 percent of  his  vast real estate holdings even after resigning from the family business and pledging a clear divide between  his  private interests and public duties.
The value of  his  retained real estate interests is between $132 million and $407 million and could leave  him  in a position to financially benefit from  his  familyâs business.
The documents reflect the opaque decisions that  Kushner  and  his  attorneys made to allow  him  to keep much of  his  outside investments while seeking to remain within the boundaries that government ethics officials would find acceptable.
 Kushner âs form lists hundreds of private companies. Some of the investments  he  kept are held by shell companies that are virtually impossible to track  and  Kushner  has declined to make public more information on those entities.
The 124 real estate assets that  Kushner  has kept include residential real estate in suburban Maryland  a Times Square retail complex  and apartments across the Midwest  from Toledo to the small town of Speedway   Ind. Kushner  also kept  his  stake in a New Jersey mobile-home park.
 His  decision to divest from one of the Jersey City projects  One Journal Square  gained attention this month after  his  sister appeared at a conference in China promoting the use of a special U.S. visa program to lure investors for the development and publicly noting  her brotherâs  connection to the president.
The White House said  Kushner  had recused  himself  from discussions of the EB-5 visa program.
It is not clear from  Kushner âs financial filings whether any of  his  holdings might intersect with  his  broad and evolving responsibilities in the White House. This week   Kushner  has been close by the president during the administrationâs first international trip  with stops in Saudi Arabia  Israel  the Vatican  Belgium and Italy.
 Kushner  rejected a request by The Washington Post to review  his  ethics agreement with the White House  which would lay out the topics that  he  has pledged to avoid because of concerns about conflicts of interest. White House officials have said that it is a long-standing policy for the agreements to remain confidential.
As a result  ethics experts say   Kushner  is asking Americans to take  his  word for it.
 Kushner  declined to comment for this article. One of  his  attorneys  former Clinton administration Justice Department official Jamie Gorelick  said that they were âstriving for simplicityâ in choosing which assets to sell and which ones to keep to minimize potential areas of conflict.
For instance   Kushner  sold  his  interests in 666 Fifth Avenue  the companyâs landmark building in Manhattan  because it may be refinanced and posed many uncertainties.
 He  also sold  his  interests in a venture capital firm because of its investments in broad sectors of the economy  including a health-care company. Had  he  kept  his  interests   Kushner  might have needed to recuse  himself  from discussions related to health care or risk violating a conflicts of interest statute.
