HIGH-SPEED RAIL: Taxpayers Charged for Consultants First-Class Flights, Gym Trips and More

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Philip takes a look at a new investigation by the California High-Speed Rail Office of the Inspector General found that the Rail Authority improperly reimbursed consultants for roughly $600,000 in questionable travel expenses, including luxury flights and trips to gyms and entertainment venues. The report concluded that oversight failures, poor documentation, and noncompliance with state rules allowed the spending to occur, adding another controversy to California's already embattled high-speed rail project.
