CLC sent a letter on December 19, 2018 to Chairman Gowdy and Ranking Member Cummings about potential undisclosed conflicts of interest on the part of Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker, who was paid $1.2 million from a single, untraceable source in the three years before joining the Department of Justice. Whitaker was executive director of the Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT), and was the organization's only full-time employee.
