According to Resist the Mainstream:
"A top Democratic lawmaker’s unusual spending habits — which included tens of thousands in travel expenses last year despite shutting down in-person campaign operations and urging constituents to stay home amid the pandemic — have prompted ethics concerns, the Washington Free Beacon reported Monday."
"Democratic New York Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, who leads the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, spent nearly $29,000 on “ground transportation” and “automobile expenses” in the last nine months of 2020, according to financial records."
"The exorbitant spending on travel included “nearly $20,000 in lease and insurance payments, more than $3,600 in collision repairs, nearly $2,200 in gas, more than $2,100 in rental car fees, and nearly $500 for a satellite radio subscription,” the Free Beacon reported." [Rest of the story...]
According to his website, Representative Sean Patrick Maloney currently represents New York’s 18th district in the U.S. House of Representatives and was first elected in November 2012.
He served as a senior advisor in President Bill Clinton’s White House and also served as a senior staff member to two Democratic governors of New York
He's probably a very nice gentlemen, however, he apparently is a "family & friends" politician who seems to believe that he is entitled to do as he wishes while telling us to stay home.
