Turnpike Commission Lobbying Expenses
Here are the Turnpike Commission’s 2007-08 lobbyist expense reports with the PA Dept. of State
That comes to $519,000 over 15 months (just at the state level).
Jan – Mar – 2008 – $67,954
Oct – Dec – 2007 – $124,050
Jul – Sep – 2007 – $124,050
Apr – Jun – 2007 -$109,050
Jan – Mar – 2007 – $94,050
Aside from the obvious fact that this represents public toll dollars by one state agency to lobby another (which would be illegal for federal agencies), I would like take this opportunity to point out that I run circles, providing legitimate Turnpike Facts, around Mike Long and company – for about 1/10th the pay.
