Personal financial disclosure forms from members of Congress, showing assets and other information as of the end of last year, are now available for perusal.
There are lots of fun tidbits. For example, Sen. John Ensign’s wife was paid $2,350 in salary by HairArts LLC of Las Vegas. Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) got dividends from Pizza Hut (Yum! Brands).
The Washington Post has the rundown on energy company holdings of members responsible for regulating those industries. Bloomberg zeroes in on a free Christmas Eve flight Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) got on the private jet of Diane Feinstein’s husband.
