Former HHS Secretary Tom Price lost his job after flying on charted jets at taxpayer expense. Turns out his frequent flyer companion was Counselor to the President, Kellyanne Conway. It was reported today that Conway and Price flew together several times on private jets.
Today it’s been reported today that Price re-paid the Government $60,000 for his controversial flights, but what will Conway owe? Her share would be tens of thousands of dollars.
This isn’t the first time Conway has been accused of a potential ethics or legal violation. Just last week it was determined that she broke the law when she campaigned on TV for Roy Moore. And who can forget when she turned salesperson on Fox News and encouraged people to buy products made by Ivanka Trump’s company? So far she is Teflon, but now that money is involved, will the White House finally act?
NEW: Oversight committee confirms that TOM PRICE reimbursed $60,000 worth of private flights.
But committee Democrats also confirmed that Kellyanne Conway was on 10 flights with Price at a cost of tens of thousands of dollars to taxpayers.https://t.co/32aRQGVr3L pic.twitter.com/WFSitQXc4c
