When President Trump denied House Speaker Nancy Pelosi use of a military aircraft for a CODEL to Afghanistan recently, he called the public's attention to wasteful taxpayer-funded congressional travel.
For years we have been exposing the lucrative travel our leaders enjoy at taxpayer expense.
We have long noted Pelosi's abuse of the perks of public office that granted her access to luxury military travel.
In 2009, during Pelosi's first speakership, we uncovered documents from the Department of Defense detailing her multiple requests for military air travel.
In May 2008, for example, Pelosi requested that her husband join her on a CODEL into Iraq.
We reported in 2010 that Pelosi's jet travel cost the Air Force $2,100,744.
The CODELs didn't stop after Speaker Pelosi lost power in 2010.
