Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs
Subcommittee on Federal Spending Oversight and Emergency Management
Abstract
From the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, the Subcommittee on Federal Spending Oversight and Emergency Management led by Senator Rand Paul issued a weekly waste report on the Department of Commerce spending $500,000 on a grant to make a documentary on the Kilogram, a metal cylinder stored in Paris that serves as a standard for measuring mass. The report asserts that the documentary is unlikely to be of value to taxpayers.
