THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS: Crooked Susie Lee Cashed In on Congress
A damning New York Times report details how congressional stock trading has become a defining issue, and Crooked Susie Lee is the poster child for Washington corruption.
Since taking office, Lee’s household has reportedly made more than 1,200 stock trades. Lee also failed to properly disclose more than 200 transactions worth as much as $3.3 million.
Then Lee unloaded as much as $1.5 million in Full House Resorts stock, the casino company run by her ex-husband, before its value cratered, allowing her to dodge as much as $300,000 in losses.
“Crooked Susie Lee turned public office into a private trading floor, Congress into her personal ATM, and the public trust into a sucker’s bet. Susie Lee didn’t clean up Washington, she cashed in on it.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
