WASHINGTON – New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie faces a federal probe of how he
spent Superstorm Sandy aid to add to his Bridge-gate woes , a lawmaker
announced Monday.
The feds are investigating Christie’s use of $25 million in aid for the “
Stronger than the Storm” TV ad campaign that prominently featured him and
his family, Rep. Frank Pallone (D-N.J.) told CNN.
“This was money that could have directly been used for Sandy recovery,”
Pallone said. “As you know, many of my constituents still haven’t gotten
the money that is owed them to rebuild their homes or raise their homes or
to help.”
The investigation by the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s
inspector general is focused on an ad campaign that was supposed to boost
tourism in New Jersey after the storm. New Jersey awarded the contract in
April to a politically-connected ad firm. MWW, which bid $4.7 million to
produce a commercial that prominently featured the Christies. The price tag
was more than $2 million above the next lowest bid. But the lower bid did
not include the Christies in the ad.
A finding of wrongdoing would be a major blow to Christie, who has made his
response to Superstorm Sandy a highlight on his political resume. It also
would further damage his reputation that has been stained by a close
aide ordering traffic-snarling lane closures on the George Washington Bridge
in September as political payback.
The bridge scandal is simultaneously under investigation by state lawmakers.
Pallone first tipped off the feds in August that the state picked a more
expensive bid that suspiciously included Christie, who was up for re-
election and angling for a 2016 presidential run. The inspector general’s
preliminary review found enough evidence to justify a full-scale probe, said
Pallone.
The investigation is expected to last several months. | m*******y
