A federal watchdog says President Donald Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway violated federal law last year when she spoke out in support of Republican Roy Moore and against his Democratic rival in the Alabama Senate race.

The Office of Special Counsel says she violated the Hatch Act twice last year.

"Ms. Conway, in her official capacity, attempted to influence the Alabama special election by advocating for the success and failure of candidates in that race," the report stated. Her comments came in separate interviews with Fox News and CNN.

Some are calling on Conway to resign or to be fired.

Because she is a presidential appointee, it is up to Trump to decide what -- if any -- punishment she will receive.

Career government officials found to have violated the Hatch Act can be fired, suspended or demoted, and fined up to $1,000.

Conway, a New Jersey native, came under fire for violating a different ethics provision last year, when she pushed Trump supporters to purchase products sold under the Ivanka Trump brand.

Should Conway resign over the latest findings?
