Jason Chaffetz: “The reason that this resolution is moving forward is that there is a benefit to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus…”

On the recordNovember 30, 2010
The reason that this resolution is moving forward is that there is a benefit to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute. They can use this as a tool to go out and solicit more money, more support, and grow their own personal foundation. It's not something that's afforded to other foundations. And the only reason this is moving forward is because we have 13 Members in this body that are cosponsors of this legislation that sit on the board of directors. And that is of deep concern.
