Will multi-millionaire GOP Congressman John Fleming pay for his international travel instead of making the taxpayers???
A new report released by USA Today yesterday revealed that Congressman John Fleming (LA-04) is part of an exclusive club of Americans- the wealthiest 1%. The news broke just as Congressman Fleming returned from jet setting half way around the world in Israel. Here is national Israeli news outlet Arutz Sheva's story about Fleming's trip. A phone call to Congressman Fleming's Washington D.C. office this morning confirmed that he returned to the United States this weekend.
So what in the world is Congressman Fleming doing jetting around the globe while Congress and our country face one of the biggest financial crises of our time??? Given his out of touch behavior it’s no surprise to learn that Fleming is part of the elite, richest 1% of Americans. But what we would love to know is if the multi-millionaire Congressman is going to pick up the tab for all this travel at a time when so many Louisianans are struggling and our country faces enormous debt?
The constituents of the 4th Congressional district of Louisiana deserve to know.
