Biden nominee under fire over possible financial benefits while working in Congress
Fox News
President Biden's nominee for the director of the Bureau of Land Management is under fire from Republicans for an allegedly unethical loan she took while she worked for Sen. John Tester.
Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., pressed Tracy Stone-Manning on a personal loan of between $50,000 and $100,00 that she took out during her time as the state director for Sen. Jon Tester, D-MT, during a Tuesday hearing. Marshall said that her loan's interest rate was significantly below the market rate and asked Stone-Manning if she believed it may have posed an ethical problem. Stone-Manning replied that she values ethics and defended the loan as help from a friend when her family was struggling in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis.More Related News
