I’m not an eTransperancy expert… but the site is easy to use and informative. I like it. Kudos to Beshear for getting it done.

here’s the real kicker…
PSC in AND out of state travel approx 35,000.
Gov Office in AND out of state travel approx 52,000.
Commissioner of Agriculture’s IN state is 174,884.76 and out of state is 33,057.51.
Yes, that’s right. The grand total of $210,000 and that’s just June 08 – January 09 with 5 1/2 months still left in the 09 fiscal year. There should be some serious explaining here!!!! Significant waste, fraud and abuse and by who should be one of the questions…employee specific including Farmer!!!

The Public Service Commission has in and out of state travel expenses for about 35,000 dollars…that’s an agency with about 100 employees and that does NOT count the state car expenses for cars they have and that total is just for fiscal year 09 which isn’t even over until June of this year. Serious travel abuse here!!!
