Rick Scott opposes Republican proposal to fund White House ballroom with federal taxpayer money
Sen. Rick Scott criticized a GOP plan to spend up to $400 million in federal funds on a White House ballroom, citing the nation's $39 trillion debt. Sen. Lindsey Graham had announced legislation to finance the 90,000-square-foot facility using federal customs fees, arguing it serves security and operational purposes. The proposal follows an alleged security incident at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner.
