President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for transportation secretary, former congressman Sean Duffy, recently dipped into old campaign funds to pay expenses at the Ritz-Carlton hotel giant, records show.
Duffy disclosed having around $2 million in his campaign committee as of October, Bloomberg Government reported. The ex-Wisconsin House member cut a $5,700 check in March from his campaign to the Ritz-Carlton for “travel,” which preceded payments totaling around $6,200 combined in 2020 and 2021 there for the same earmarked reason, according to Federal Election Commission filings.
