Hey, Rosie O’Donnell: It’s Illegal to Offer Cash to GOP Senators to Switch Vote on Tax Bill
The Wrap quoted Abby K. Wood of the USC Gould School on why it is unlikely comedian Rosie O’Donnell will be prosecuted for offering money to senators in exchange for a “no” vote on the tax reform bill.
Abby K. Wood, an associate professor of law, political science and public policy at USC’s Gould School of Law tells TheWrap that, while O’Donnell may have been “serious” in her tweet, it’s unlikely to be taken seriously. In part because law enforcement likely has more serious priorities, and in part because it’s exemplary of the “crazy year we’re in.”
