WJLA-TV (2/12, 6:00 p.m.) reported, "Last November at this downtown Washington hotel, the Transportation Security Administration honored more than 350 of its own. Not only did your tax dollars foot the bill, they paid for the travel and lodging expenses of a few hundred party-goers. The price tag was more than $200,000. Today we made three separate requests for comment from the Transportation Security Administration. Our calls and email requests were never returned."
