New York congressman Mike Lawler's campaign fund splashed more than $150,000 on limousines, private boat charters, five-star hotels, celebrity restaurants, and ritzy resorts, financial filings reveal. Lawler's campaign spent $11,329.61 at The Breakers, a five star hotel in Palm Beach, Florida, where rooms routinely run at over $1,000 per night. Country clubs with golf courses featured heavily in Lawler's event expenses. A source close to Lawler’s campaign said that charge was for replacement travel when his flight to a campaign event was canceled. Katarina Flicker, a spokesperson for Democrat fund the House Majority PAC, was critical of Lawler's expenses.
