Lawmakers Travel at Public and Private Expense
Lawmakers take official recess trips funded by public money or paid privately amid a summer break. Several attend international conferences and tours in Europe and Asia while others tour military bases, observe postal operations, or visit Israel and Formosa as guests of private groups. A large group travels free with Trans World Airways for a Hong Kong inauguration trip, largely covered for several senators and representatives, with families accompanying most travelers.
