FACT Senate Ethics Letter re: HRC Campaign

9

description

We write today to request that the United States Senate Select Committee on Ethics immediatelyinvestigate members ofthe Senate Democratic Caucus’s apparent breach ofethics rules prohibitingthe use of Senate facilities and resources for campaign and political activity. Although theprohibition against using taxpayer-funded Senate resources for political activities is clear, HillaryClinton’s campaign staff has reportedly used Senate facilities to meet with members ofthe SenateDemocratic Caucus. Not only does it appear that a breach of federal law and Senate Rules hasoccurred, but this violation may be ongoing. Thus, we request the Committee investigate thereported violation and enforce federal law and its rules prohibiting the use of official Senatefacilities and resources for political activities.
