19 something the Senator would have been able to assist
20 i f the Senator agreed with i t ?
A
2 2 Q Was i t a proposal to a federal agency?
2 3 A I f I r e c a l l , and again, I think i t had
24 something to do with l i k e DOD procurement,
2 5 streamlining the process f o r procurement, something
26
6 company called that managed f i n a n c i a l
7 services such as debit cards or c r e d i t cards,
8 et cetera, could i t have been something about using
9 debit cards i n emergency services?
10 A Sure. That sounds probably about r i g h t .
11 There's a reason i t couldn't work f o r whatever
12 reason, and I don't know what that was, and I think
13 i t had something to do with procurement.
2 3 Q Did the Senator express any issues with
24 i t ?
2 5 A
26

4 Q What was the purpose of that?
5 A I don't know. Just to be f r i e n d l y .
9
10 I was going to Nevada maybe four or f i v e times a
1 1 year meeting with d i f f e r e n t constituents, d i f f e r e n t
1 2 c l i e n t s -- not c l i e n t s , but constituents.

1 6 I have never since e-mailed contacted
1 7 I t was kind of a throwaway.

1 9 thought, was that something you were doing i n your

22 I would have no other reason to meet

2 5 A Not that I r e c a l l , no.
26
SCE0003533
4 A No.
5 Q I you i f there were any concerns.
6 I f you did have any concerns about any e t h i c a l
7 issues, who would you have gone to i n the office?
14 A Yes.
15 Q Had he said that to you or was i t a
16 general o f f i c e policy?
17 A I think i t was a general o f f i c e p o l i c y .
18 Q Do you r e c a l l that i n any s p e c i f i c
19 meetings?
2 0 A Maybe i n that leg. s t a f f meeting.

12 of ethics discussed?
13 A No. I t may have been i n the context of
14 Senator Ensign's p r o f i l e was getting -- his p r o f i l e
15 was being raised because of his p o s i t i o n at both
16 senatorial and RPC and so I think there was some
17 discussion about making sure that we were doing
18 everything we could t o comply with the Ethics
19 Committee.
2 0 Q You believe t h i s was another topic of
21 discussion at that meeting?

we've got three things -- w e l l , we have the mention

as well as general? Is that f a i r to say?
