Rep. John Mica,


GOP Talks Deficit Reduction, But Top Republican Would Spend $270 Million On Art - ABC News

"I have no other priority for the balance of my tenure in Congress," Mica said at a House subcommittee meeting in March.

Rosch said he couldn't understand how the expansion rose to become Mica's top priority even before he held a single hearing as committee chairman, before he identified where the FTC was going to go, before anyone had determined the fair market value of the FTC building, and before anyone had conducted an impartial evaluation of what it would cost taxpayers.

I'm not opposed to moving FTC offices to some remote location. Maybe occupy the UN building and re-locate the UN to Haiti.

The only offices that should be located in DC are executive offices of the three branches of government and may include cabinet level executive offices only.

Everyone else can find less costly warehouses for their offices.

Expand the Smithsonian campus
