Quote:
Since federal funds make up nearly 40% of the Atlanta-based charity's revenue, Senators Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa), Tom Coburn (R. Okla.), Jon Kyl (R., Ariz.) and John Cornyn (R., Texas) said they were concerned the money was going to fund the CEO's nearly $1 million compensation package, $4.3 million in travel expenses and more than half a million in lobbying fees :o :o , instead of going to serve the 5 million children that attend 4,000 local clubs.

At first I thought this was going to be about the Ottawa Senators. :?

If those numbers are accurate they should be stripped of their non-profit status.

Glad to see they're being publicly shamed.
