Listed $4,400 in meals, travel or seminars from 3 sources
The statement lists 3 items; the largest source is Center for Freethought Equality/American Humanist Association ($2,000). These are the kinds of gifts the F-1 asks for: meals over $100, and travel or seminar costs paid by an organization, which the $100 gift limit doesn't cover.
What to check
- Who the sources are, and whether any has business before the official's agency or body.
- For state officials: whether a source also appears on lobbyist reports.
