Federal Times: WASHINGTON (AP) — A House committee is demanding that 15 federal agencies fully account for senior officials’ travel following reports of costly plane travel by Trump Cabinet secretaries.
In letters sent this week, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee threatened to subpoena the Agriculture and Justice departments by the end of the month if officials fail to provide all the information requested on the use of government-owned aircraft for personal travel or private aircraft for official travel. The Republican-controlled committee also widened the scope of its inquiry to include Obama-era travel.
The panel said 13 other departments and agencies, including the White House, have only partly responded to its requests so far.
