Defeated Lawmaker Still Parks in House Lot
Former Rep. Melissa Hart (R-PA) “may have hit the road and gone back home to Pittsburgh in 2006 when she lost her bid for re-election, but it appears that a car she owns still remains in the Longworth House Office building parking garage — more than three years after she left Congress,” the Daily Caller reports.
Former members “can only park in the garages if they are not registered lobbyists.” Hart is registered in the Senate lobbyist database.
“A woman identifying herself as Hart answered the phone at her law office, but hung up after the reporter asked if the car belonged to her.”
