Washington in a Land Grab Sparks Senate Scandal Fears
Representative Sisson of Mississippi introduced a resolution of inquiry alleging that congress members or their families and friends may have financial interests in the government purchase of land for Capitol grounds and an Union Station entrance. The purchase, overseen by a commission including Vice President Sherman and Ellott Wood, was originally to be a park and entrance with cost estimates from 3.5 million to 8 million dollars, with a year limit of 400 thousand dollars. No purchases have yet been made, and available funds total 1 million dollars two years after the resolution. Suspicion grows amid rumors of Baltimore land deals as the matter advances.
