Rep. Jared Huffman released a staff report showing that the official, nonpartisan America 250 celebration was compromised by a private shadow organization that exerted control over the event. The investigation found corporate influence embedded in what was supposed to be a taxpayer-funded national commemoration without partisan interests.
