Phil King’s misuse of campaign funds

August 2, 2007 By TXsharon

It seems that Phil King loves to break the Texas Ethics Commission rules for campaign spending. To see exactly how he spent $448,000 in the last two years check out his filings HERE.

Some highlights brought to us by Bay Area Houston:

His gas purchases are over $9000 including fill ups at Randalls for over $100 each. (That must be a hell of a big gas tank.) Plane travel is over $11,200. $45,000 for “Accommodations expense”, over $10,000 for “meeting expenses” and over $2700 for “office meals and refreshments”.

But the most interesting is his “Public Relations” bill of over $97,000. This includes $4990 for “Public Relations” at the Capitol Gift, $5200 to Retriever Sporting Clays Inc for “Public Relations”, and $14,000 for Kevin Brannon for “Public Relations” . By the way, Kevin Brannon is a political fundraiser, not a “Public Relations”.

To see reports for other political office holders see Bay Area Houston Texas. No place for ethics
