Sununu plane trips spark Democratic demand for accounting
Democrats press for a full accounting of White House chief of staff John Sununu's use of military jets for personal and political travel. Reports say he took over 60 trips in 27 months, many to New England and vacation spots, with costs cited as more than half a million dollars. A White House aide said reimbursements were at full commercial rates. Rep. John Conyers asked GAO to review two years of Sununu's trips while Rep. Vic Fazio accused public funds of financing vacations and fundraising for the GOP.
