If you know so much, why not enlighten us why this is so normal for a company to over charge while the CEO who hires them ignores what other states did while he continue to lie about the deal.
They are not overcharging Who cares what other states did - do you understand anything about contracts and bids and tenders and awards? Everyone is a liar in your pathetic, partisan existence.
Who cares? This is the government, not your Oxycontin buying spree where you depend on relationships from shady figures. The CEO didn't follow protocol, is lying about what's happening while they are being overcharged. And tell me how a Republican congressman in charge of oversight saying something fishy is partisan. Who is he partisan against?
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is sounding an alarm over Puerto Rico’s $300 million contract with a small Montana company to restore power infrastructure, amid concerns over the firm's tiny staff and lack of competitive bidding. FEMA will be responsible for paying for the work by Whitefish Energy Holdings, but the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA), the island’s utility, entered into the contract. http://thehill.com/policy/energy-en...ificant-concerns-with-puerto-ricos-300m-power
"The most recent version of the contract between PREPA and Whitefish states that FEMA had "reviewed and approved" it for compliance with its disaster recovery regulations. And Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló said in a Wednesday letter to the Department of Homeland Security that the contract “appeared to comply 100% with FEMA regulations.”"
Since it is a direct quote from the article you posted then obviously you must fully agree with the assertion.
