Political donations to Rep. Devin Nunes were improperly used to fund $5,518 in private jet travel, says a complaint filed by a nonpartisan watchdog group with the Federal Election Commission on Monday.
Nunes, R-Calif., is the sponsor of New PAC, a leadership political action committee which paid $11,036 to Paramount Business Jets on March 7, according to public filings. The PAC was refunded $5,518 May 18, citing overpayment.
.........................................
Its illegal for such leadership PAC money, which members of Congress use for donating money to other political candidates and committees, to be used for non-commercial air travel. Exceptions described in federal law are government-owned planes or planes already owned or leased by the congressman or candidate.
When asked to comment on the complaint, Anthony Ratekin, Nunes chief of staff, said McClatchy and the local paper in Nunes district should apologize to the congressman and stop embarrassing themselves.
