"Three U.S. congressmen and a top-level government official attended the opening of the Church of Scientology’s National Office in Washington, D.C., Thursday.
Their attendance marked a significant endorsement from members of a government that was once partially at war with the organization.
Lawmakers in attendance were Texas Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, Indiana Republican Rep. Dan Burton and Illinois Democratic Rep. Danny Davis. Liz Gibson, Senior Program Manager at the Federal Emergency Management Agency was also in attendance."




I hope they at least got a free audit.

I wouldn't be surprised if this handful of lawmakers are entirely ignorant of what the CO$ is.

Those 3 Congresspersons mentioned are extremely silly people. As far as I'm concerned, they're so blinkered they probably thought they were taking a trip to Disneyland.

This reminds me of a passel of incredibly foolish members of Congress who attended a sort of coronation ceremony for Sun Myung Moon a few years back. Davis was one of them. He wore white gloves and carried a pillow bearing a crown, which was placed on the head of the mega-maniacal cult leader.

That was my first thought as well. I live in Davis' district.

Some people will attend absolutely anything if they get free food out of it.
