Brief Executive Summary
From the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, the Subcommittee on Federal Spending Oversight and Emergency Management led by Senator Rand Paul issued a weekly waste report on a $75k grant to the U.K. to bring 10 social media influencers to the U.S. to explore American values and culture. The report argues that modern day internet usage sustains Americanism abroad and there is no need for such expenditures.
