Brett Favre To Speak Before Congress
SUMMARY: Retired NFL quarterback Brett Favre will appear before Congress on Tuesday to discuss welfare mismanagement amid an investigation into his involvement in Mississippi’s welfare scandal. Favre, invited by House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Rep. Jason Smith, has faced scrutiny for accepting $1.1 million in speaking fees from welfare funds, repaying $1 million but still owing nearly $730,000 in interest. Although he is not charged criminally, Favre is part of a civil suit demanding the repayment of misappropriated TANF funds that were intended for a volleyball arena at his alma mater, the University of Southern Mississippi.
