Investigate Sean Duffy's Conflict of Interest at USDOT

To: Sen. Cantwell, Sen. Murray, Pres. Trump, Rep. DelBene

From: A verified voter in Bothell, WA

July 25

Support the CREW request for an inspector general investigation into Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy. The conflict of interest here is blatant: Duffy is producing a reality show called "The Great American Road Trip" — featuring himself and his family — funded by a Delaware nonprofit with sponsors that include Boeing and Toyota, two companies directly regulated by the Department of Transportation he runs. That is not a gray area. Duffy came to politics from MTV's Real World: Boston, not from any transportation or infrastructure background. Handing him a cabinet post and letting him use that platform to chase a TV deal — bankrolled by regulated industries — is exactly the kind of corruption that erodes public trust in government. CREW has already flagged this. The inspector general needs to investigate, and Congress needs to demand answers. I expect you to push for that accountability now.
