“There was a review done of the grants,” he said.
“And that is an area where there’s been substantial review. We found organizations that were receiving grants from Interior where 80 to 100% of the revenue of that NGO was a grant from the federal government.”
“And yet those organizations, we were the sole source of their revenue, but they would have a CEO making $650,000 and four $400,000 lobbyists,” Burgum continued.
DeLauro stammered in reply: “It would be very interesting because we can’t get any information. We may agree with you. Give us the reasons why all of these grants are cut, the organizations are cut. … We just can’t take your word.”
