Hutchison: Charity Queen?

From an A-J article about disclosures:

------------------------------------

Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison's 1997 appearance in the television series "Walker, Texas Ranger" continues to benefit charity.

She reported $153.73 was given to charity from two reruns of the show in which she played herself. Congressional members cannot accept fees for such appearances or speeches, so the fees are sent to charity.

Hutchison's investment holdings, valued between $2.2 million and $6.1 million, include stock in General Electric, Halliburton, Procter & Gamble, Wal-Mart and Reliant Energy. She made seven purchases of Wal-Mart stock valued between $7,007 and $105,000.

Way to make corporate charity your #1 priority, Kay.
