Dirty Money Watch: Rep. John Larson, D-Conn.

Published November 23, 2010 5:00am ET



WHO: Rep. John Larson, D-Conn. WHAT: Larson received $1,000 from General Motors’ Political Action Committee.

WHY IT’S DIRTY: General Motors was the recipient of a $60 billion taxpayer bailout last year that has not been paid back, so the automaker has no right to curry congressional favor at Americans’ expense.

WILL LARSON GIVE IT BACK? Larson did not respond to The Examiner’s request for comment.

DONATED THIS OR OTHER DIRTY MONEY WATCH-HIGHLIGHTED CONTRIBUTIONS TO CHARITY: No congressman has returned a GM donation yet.
