Whitmer May Face Multiple Investigations Over Her Private Flight To Florida

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Michigan State Legislature may launch separate investigations into Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s private flight to Florida in March.

Whitmer took a charter flight, almost entirely paid for by a nonprofit, to Florida in March to visit her ailing father weeks before warning Michigan residents about traveling to the southern state. Republican state Rep. Steve Johnson, chairman of the Michigan House Oversight Committee, said Monday he is considering an investigation into how Whitmer’s charter flight was paid for.
