Investigative Reporter Eric Rasmussen found several legislators cheating the system after he spent the entire week of Thanksgiving 2016 at the State House – taking attendance on every lawmaker who showed up and later checking that against their daily commuting logs.
25 Investigates found state representatives Sean Garballey of Arlington, Paul McMurtry of Dedham and John Mahoney of Worcester all collected tax dollars for commutes to the State House that they never made under the per diem program.
Taxpayers have shelled out more than $1 million for the commutes since 2014.
