What do you bet that the ousted officials have new government employment elsewhere?
Note that there is no such thing as 'government workers,' since that is an oxymoron. m/r
Spending on 'commemorative coins' sought from 28 agencies | Washington Examiner
Paul Bedard 4-5-12
The GSA spending scandal that led to several resignations of top officials has sparked a broader effort to probe federal-wide agency spending on “commemorative” items such as coins, cuff links, and other trinkets top officials throughout the government hand out.
The public interest group Cause of Action told Secrets that they delivered Freedom of Information Act demands to 28 federal departments and agencies. Their goal is to expose the total federal budget spent on trinkets which could be in the tens of thousands of dollars.
It comes on the heels of an internal probe of the General Services Administration’s $832,000 training conference in Nevada that featured a mind reader, a clown and $6,325 on commemorative coins. The department’s administration and other top officials were ousted in the scandal that has embarrassed the Obama administration.
