The Pentagon’s autopilot budget is wasting too many tax dollars

DECEMBER 4, 2019 | by U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-IA | DAILY CALLER

Op-ed by Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley, includes “Taxpayers have every right to expect the Pentagon to account for every penny. … True, more than 550 notices of findings and recommendations from the last audit were closed. However, the auditors reissued 1,800 of fiscal year 2018 recommendations and flagged 1,300 new ones for fiscal year 2019. The bottom line is clear. Material weaknesses, significant deficiencies and financial mismanagement processes are still standard operating procedure for the Pentagon.”
