It's OK for former members to park/warehouse their wheels in the House garage — unless they become lobbyists.

Apparently, that's ex-Rep. Melissa Hart's car, unwashed in the Longworth garage, three years after she left office.

Problem: She's a registered lobbyist, the Daily Caller reports.

Hart’s “dude where’s my car” dilemma may not be her only problem, if the car is in fact hers. According to the Committee on House Administration Web site, former members can park in the garages only if they are not registered lobbyists. Hart, who now chairs Pittsburgh-based law firm Keevican Weiss Bauerle & Hirsch’s Government Relations practice, is registered in the Senate lobbyist database.

-----

Bumper stickers on the car point to Hart, as does the fact that the license plate is from Pennsylvania. There’s a sticker for Washington and Jefferson College (of which Hart is a 1984 graduate) on the back window. And there’s a George W. Bush for President sticker on the bumper.

Hart was voted out of office in 2006.
