“The plan for taxpayers to pay for gift cards to reward employees for simply returning office property defied common sense. I’m thankful there are some grown-ups at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing who stepped up to cancel this outrageous expenditure after it was exposed and officials were put on notice that they would be held accountable.” On Monday, following a report by the Washington Post, Rep. Issa sent a letter to the Director of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing saying that the plan to spend over $40,000 to recover its own property, “may go down in history as one of the all time senseless uses of taxpayer dollars.” He also demanded that the agency provide a full and complete response including an answer to the question, “why didn’t you ask your employees to return the printers for free.”
