News broke yesterday in the Buffalo News, Corning Leader, Hornell Evening Tribune, and elsewhere about an FBI investigation of Tom Reed and other freshmen members of Congress for a "skinny-dipping scandal" during a $10,000/person vacation -- paid for by Washington special interests.
Nate Shinagawa is signing a pledge to refuse these lobbyist-funded perks and end them ones and for all. Join him by signing on the right!
The pledge:
I pledge that as a member of Congress, I will not accept offers of trips paid for by lobbyists or special interest groups. I will not allow my staff (or my family) to accept offers of trips paid for by lobbyists or special interest groups. Members of Congress represent their constituents and the United States of America when they travel abroad, and should not be representing the concerns of special interest groups or corporations. Voters deserve a Representative committed to ending -- not becoming a part of -- the culture of big-money influence in Washington.
Join as a citizen supporter on the right!
(Nate Shinagawa may read your name at his press conference about this pledge in a few days.)
