J/W found numerous trips were made by Speaker Pelosi between her home base, San Francisco, and DC's Andrews Air Force Base.
Several trips included Pelosi’s family, including her husband, daughter, granddaughters and son-in law.

<><> One “Staff Summary Sheet” detailing a January 4, 2010, flight from San Francisco to Andrews Air Force Base notes that Pelosi’s daughter Christina “owes for $99.00 (flight) and $7.82 (meal).”

<><>The documents suggest that the Speaker’s office was billed for the fees but do not indicate whether the bills were paid.

=====================================

A January 7-11, 2010, Congressional Delegation to Detroit, Michigan, for the expressed purpose of reviewing “the impact of congressional appropriations and policy in promoting innovation, technological development and job creation in US auto industry.”

The Detroit trip required $24,336.60 in commercial air travel and an additional $10,046.87 in expenses.

The Pentagon (read taxpayers) also paid for military escorts. One document notes that the mode of transportation for the trip would be “Comair and Milair,” (commercial air travel and military air travel).

However, the only cost related to the military portion of the transportation detailed in the records is a $15,000 advance (tax dollars) secured for (A) ground transportation, (B) meals and (C) lodging.

A total of 24 House Members (16 Democrats, 8 Republicans), led by then-Speaker Pelosi and then-Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD), were on the list of trip participants.

Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) drove himself to Detroit and sought $228 in mileage reimbursement.

Would it be safe to guess that Pelosi’s travel has cost the taxpayer at least a Million or two dollars over time?

She is one snotty bitch to have used our taxpayer dollars for her commuting and “business” trips.

You forgot to include her “requests” for upgrades on the liquor stores for her 757 flights.
