Brief Executive Summary
Senator Tom Coburn, member of the subcommittee on Federal Financial Management, Government Information, Federal Services and International Security created the report to display countless wasteful spending that resulted in the national debt to increase. The purpose of these investigations, however, was to deter federal agencies to continue in spending tax dollars in this manner by holding them accountable for future actions.
