Allegations of financial improprieties against the Washington Commanders and their owner, Daniel Snyder, could prompt action by several offices
The 20-page letter signed by Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney , the committee’s chairwoman, and Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi , the chairman of the subcommittee on economic and consumer policy, was sent Tuesday to Lina M. Khan, chair of the Federal Trade Commission. It was copied to attorneys general Jason S. Miyares of Virginia, Brian E. Frosh of Maryland and Karl A. Racine of D.C., along with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. The Commanders have denied committing any financial improprieties.
“You generally don’t like to brush off a legislative committee, especially if you’re the chair. It’s your own party, they want you to do something,” Kovacic said. “It’s awkward to tell them, ‘Get lost. We’ve got too much else.’ Indeed, they have too many other things to do. They have a whole collection of enormously ambitious, difficult projects that arguably involve much higher stakes for society.
“We take these allegations against the Washington Commanders very seriously, and if we find evidence that they have violated District law, we won’t hesitate to take action,” the spokesperson said. “During AG Racine’s time in office, our consumer protection team has filed dozens of lawsuits against companies that harmed District residents — including some of the largest companies in the world — and we’ve secured more than $12 million in relief.
