Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi Violating House Rules By Screening Anti-Koch Brothers Movie In The Capitol Building
The show must go on — unless it breaks congressional rules.
Rep. Candice Miller, the chairwoman of the House Administration Committee, wrote to Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Monday saying a scheduled film screening of an anti-Koch brothers movie in the Capitol Visitor Center is violating House and Senate rules.
The screening for “Koch Brothers Exposed: 2014 Edition” is scheduled for Tuesday evening and both Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) will participate in a question and answer session for the film.
But, in letter obtained by POLITICO, Miller (R-Mich.) wrote that she has “several serious concerns” that using the Capitol Visitor Center for the film “may cross the line into partisan politics.”
Rules created by the House and Senate committees charged with administration of the Capitol complex state that “no audio visual presentations in the CVC may premiere, preview, showcase, or publicize a film.”
“We cannot hold partisan political rallies or fundraisers on the grounds of the Capitol, or within its walls. Our work in this hallowed building must solely be in the interests of the American people and not int the interests of any political cause,” Miller wrote.
Wild Thing’s comment………..
Beyond disgusting and totally corrupt.
Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi are key players in that entity known as the obama presidency. They consider themselves exempt from any rules or laws.
