DID PETER ROSKAM BREAK HOUSE RULES WITH TAXPAYER-FUNDED MAILERS?
(Downers Grove, IL) November 1, 2018 - Residents of the Sixth Congressional District received taxpayer-funded advertisements in the mail this week from Congressman Peter Roskam’s office in possible violation of House ethics rules. Members of Congress are prohibited from sending any unsolicited mass mailing to 500 or more people, a practice known as “franking,” within 90 days of an election. However, the mailer that voters received this past week promoting Roskam says it “was prepared, published and mailed at taxpayer expense” from Peter Roskam’s Congressional office. Pictures of the mailers are available here and here.
