Rep. Feeney opens legal defense fund.

Rep. Tom Feeney (R-FL) has established the Tom Feeney Legal Expense Trust, filing papers this week with the House stating that he “has incurred legal expenses in connection with his official duties and position in Congress, and matters bearing on his reputation or fitness for office.” Feeney was recently questioned by the FBI about his connections to criminal GOP lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Feeney attended an international golfing trip with Abramoff and former Reps. Bob Ney (now in prison) and Tom DeLay (now under indictment).
