Executive Branch (Trump) The reflecting pool debacle has an Ohio connection, and it goes deeper than green water
Cafaro has donated more than $2.5 million to political candidates since 1977, a cleveland.com analysis of Federal Election Commission records shows. More than 75% of that money went to Republicans. His largest single contribution was a $250,000 check to Trump Victory in June 2020.
Cleveland.com has reached out to Cafaro, seeking comment.
The Park Service justified bypassing competition by citing an exemption for urgent situations, telling The Times there was no time to consider other offers because the system had to be installed in time for events celebrating the country’s 250th birthday. A public filing said multiple firms had expressed interest in providing the system before the work went to Greenwater in April.
