Congress Member's Response to Inquiry About Vice Presidential Residence Repair Costs1975-08-14unknownhttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NKC/1.0/enghttp://congressarchives.org/record/CAC_CC_109_4_22_15_0014The document is from Mr. Jack White to Congressman James R. Jones regarding the high costs of repairing and maintaining the Vice Presidential residence in Washington. Congressman Jones acknowledges the costs but cannot justify them specifically. The official residence is nearly ready after $311,000 in repairs, with most of the money already spent. The Rockefellers are planning to move in soon and host parties to show off the renovated house. Mrs. Rockefeller is pleased with the progress. White questions the justification of such expenses, including $311,000 for repairs and $4,800 annually for maintenance.
