"Rep. Gooden and Sen. Tuberville Take Bold Stand to End Payments to Third Parties in Justice Dept Settlements!"

Published: 02-02-2023 15:43

Lance Gooden and Tommy Tuberville had been friends for years, despite their different political affiliations. They had both risen within the ranks of their respective parties and were now in a position to make real change. So, when they heard about money being paid to third party groups as part of legal settlements made by the Justice Department, they knew they had to do something.

They worked together to draft legislation that would bar such payments from occurring in the future. The bill was introduced on Capitol Hill with great fanfare and quickly gained bipartisan support. It was an example of what could be achieved when politicians put aside differences and worked together for the good of the people.

As the bill made its way through Congress, Lance and Tommy continued to work tirelessly in order to get it passed into law. Finally, after months of hard work, their efforts paid off and President Obama signed the bill into law.

The new law was hailed as a major victory for accountability in government spending. It ensured that taxpayer dollars were not squandered on groups with no public interest or benefit - instead those dollars could now be used for programs that truly benefit all Americans. Lance and Tommy's hard work had paid off!
