国会民主党人正施压共和党控制的众议院,要求就科里·莱万多夫斯基(Corey Lewandowski)展开传票调查。莱万多夫斯基是前国土安全部部长克里斯蒂·诺姆(Kristi Noem)的首席顾问,据称其在一场引发两党批评的边境安全广告活动中扮演了角色。

众议院司法委员会排名第二的民主党议员、马里兰州代表杰米·拉斯金(Jamie Raskin)与科罗拉多州代表乔·内古塞(Joe Neguse)于周三致信众议院司法委员会主席、俄亥俄州共和党人吉姆·乔丹(Jim Jordan),要求委员会展开调查,并强制莱万多夫斯基接受证词陈述。

议员们称此事是一个紧急的纳税人监督问题,希望乔丹能强迫证人提供与莱万多夫斯基在广告活动中的影响力相关的证词和文件。

民主党议员在信中写道:“我们敦促您动用委员会的传票权,强制提供与莱万多夫斯基在授予这些合同中角色相关的文件和通讯记录,并要求莱万多夫斯基出席委员会进行证词陈述。莱万多夫斯基是国土安全部广告支出的核心人物,也是最能解释2.5亿美元纳税人资金如何被使用的人。”

这场以诺姆为核心的国土安全部广告活动——包括诺姆骑马出现在拉什莫尔山的场景——激怒了一些共和党议员,他们对是否存在竞争性招标流程以及这些信息广告是否是对纳税人资金的明智使用表示担忧。

3月初,参众两院议员在连续听证会上就该主题质询诺姆,她在宣誓后作证称广告活动是通过标准竞争性投标流程批准的,并否认其目的是提升自己的公众形象。

诺姆还告诉国会议员,莱万多夫斯基“没有”参与国土安全部合同的签署批准,但拉斯金和内古塞指出,有报道显示这位高级顾问批准了多个部门合同。

在信中,民主党议员特别指出了三家获得2.2亿美元广告合同的企业,多家报道称这些企业绕过了传统的竞争性投标流程。

诺姆在宣誓后还声称广告活动得到了唐纳德·特朗普总统的批准,而特朗普在接受路透社采访时则反驳了她的证词。

拉斯金指控诺姆作伪证,并建议对这位部长因向国会撒谎提起刑事指控。

这份民主党起草的信件出台之际,乔丹对广告活动2.2亿美元的价格标签表示关切。议员们提到,乔丹在3月初告诉《纽约邮报》,“我们会对此进行调查”。

众议院国土安全委员会也表示正在调查这场有争议的广告攻势。

此后,诺姆开始担任美洲盾牌特别特使,预计将专注于移民和边境安全问题。

Raskin presses Jordan to subpoena Lewandowski over $220 million DHS ad campaign | Fox News

Congressional Democrats are pressing the Republican-controlled House to subpoena Corey Lewandowski — former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s top advisor — over his alleged role in a controversial border security ad campaign that prompted bipartisan criticism.

House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin, D-Md., and Rep. Joe Neguse, D-Co., sent a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on Wednesday demanding the committee launch an investigation and require Lewandowski to sit for a deposition.

The lawmakers argue the matter is an urgent taxpayer oversight issue and want Jordan to compel witness testimony and documents related to Lewandowski’s influence over the ad campaign.

“We urge you to use the Committee’s subpoena power to compel production of documents and communications regarding Mr. Lewandowski’s role in awarding these contracts and require Mr. Lewandowski to appear before the Committee for a deposition,” the Democratic lawmakers wrote. “Mr. Lewandowski was at the center of the Department’s advertising spending and is the person best positioned to explain how a quarter of a billion dollars in taxpayer money was spent.”

The DHS ad campaign that prominently featured Noem — including a scene of the former secretary on horseback at Mount Rushmore — upset some GOP lawmakers, who voiced concerns about whether there was a competitive bidding process and whether the infomercials were a smart use of taxpayer dollars.

Lawmakers in both chambers grilled Noem on the topic during back-to-back hearings earlier in March, during which she testified under oath that the ad campaign had been approved through the standard competitive bid process and disputed that its purpose was to boost her public profile.

Noem also told members of Congress that Lewandowski had “no” role in signing off on DHS contracts, but Raskin and Neguse point to reporting that appears to show the top advisor approving numerous contracts at the department.

In the letter, the Democratic lawmakers singled out three businesses that received the $220 million ad contract, which multiple reports have found bypassed the traditional competitive bidding process.

Noem also claimed under oath that the ad campaign had President Donald Trump’s approval only for him to contradict her testimony in an interview with Reuters.

Raskin has accused Noem of perjury and has recommended that criminal charges be brought against the secretary for lying to Congress.

The Democrat-authored letter comes as Jordan has expressed concern about the ad campaign’s $220 million price tag. The lawmakers reference Jordan telling the New York Post earlier in March that “we’ll take a look at it.”

The House Homeland Security Committee has also said it is probing the controversial ad blitz.

Noem has since started a new role as special envoy to the Shield of the Americas, where she is expected to focus on immigration and border security issues.
