Description | WASHINGTON - Rep. Tom Feeney violated U.S. House rules when he took a golfing trip to Scotland with convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff in 2003.
The House ethics committee announced Wednesday that Feeney, a Republican from the Orlando area, agreed to pay the cost of the trip - $5,643 - to the U.S. Treasury.
"We concluded that the trip did not comply with House rules," the committee's outgoing leaders, Reps. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., and Howard Berman, D-Calif., said in a written statement. |
