SEIU Spends $1.2M on DC Luxury Stay That Didn't Stop Trump's Agenda
The Service Employees International Union spent $1.2 million on luxury accommodations at D.C.'s Salamander Hotel during a lobbying trip to oppose President Donald Trump's policies, despite ultimately failing in their efforts. The union's high tab came during a visit to the hotel in 2018.
The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) incurred a $1.2 million bill at Washington D.C.'s luxurious Salamander Hotel during a lobbying trip to oppose President Donald Trump's policies, despite ultimately failing in their efforts to block the 'One Big Beautiful Handshake' initiative. The union had been booked into two suites for five nights, with expenses including food, drinks, and other incidentals. The significant expenditure has raised questions about the efficiency of labor unions' use of taxpayer-funded travel. The SEIU ultimately failed to stop Trump's project, which is expected to bring in millions of dollars for Washington D.C.
