Corey Goldstone, spokesperson for the nonpartisan Campaign Legal Center, which filed a complaint against Zinke’s campaign committee in October for failure to report contributions received, on Tuesday said, “Submitting incomplete travel records fits a pattern that Zinke has demonstrated of flouting transparency laws and norms dating back to his campaign for Congress. The public has a right to full disclosure so they know whether Zinke and his wife’s travel is really in the public interest.”
