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 regarding the Federal Government using taxpayer money to study people's e-mail response habits in a federally-funded study out of the University of Southern California. The report questions why the funding is coming from taxpayers and states that this highlights a problem the Government has with keeping tabs on money as it moves "downstream."
