A recent front page story by USA Today reveals just how much Hillary Clinton relied on taxpayer funded private jets during her Senate career (hint: it was a lot). When it comes to travel, Clinton clearly has expensive tastes. Check out the breakdown below:
$225,000 – amount spent on private flights as Senator, including more than 200 flights at taxpayer expense
$527,000 – taxpayer dollars spent on private flights for Clinton and her staff
$42,000 – taxpayer dollars spent on Clinton private flights outside of New York
$160,000 – amount spent on private flights during Clinton’s 2006 Senate reelect alone
$300,000 – amount spent on charter flights in 4-year ramp up to Clinton’s Presidential campaign
$19.2 million – amount spent on private flights during Clinton’s 2008 Presidential campaign
$50 million – amount the Clinton Foundation spent on travel between 2003 & 2012
$8 million – amount the Clinton Foundation spent on travel when Hillary & Chelsea joined—nearly double what it had spent the previous year
10% – amount of the Clinton Foundation budget spent on travel
