Nearly 100 Homeland Security employees are collecting pay while not working, the Washington Post reports.
Auditors made the discovery and expressed concerns about the go-to strategy of placing employees accused of misconduct on administrative leave.
Sen. Charles E. Grassley, R-Iowa, is unhappy and wants to know why so many employees are paid without being required to work.
“DHS also failed to explain why such extended amounts of time were needed to conduct investigations into security issues, misconduct, or fitness for duty,” Grassley wrote in a letter to DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson.
