House Democrats are probing the nation’s largest insurance companies for lavish spending, demanding reams of compensation data and schedules of retreats and conferences.

Letters sent to 52 insurance companies by Democratic leaders demand extensive documents for an examination of ‘extensive compensation and other business practices in the health insurance industry.” The letters set a deadline of Sept. 14 for the documents.

Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.), chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, and Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), chairman of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, signed the three-page letter dated Monday.

An industry source replied when asked for comment: “This is nothing more than a taxpayer-funded fishing expedition designed to silence health plans."

By Sept. 4, the firms are supposed to supply detailed compensation data for board members and top executives, as well as a “table listing all conferences, retreats, or other events held outside company facilities from January 1, 2007, to the present that were paid for, reimbursed, or subsidized in whole or in part by your company.”

For employees or officers making $500,000 or more, the committee wants information on salary, bonus, options and pension.

And by Sept. 14, the firms are supposed to provide copies of reports from compensation consultants, plus board drafts of compensation plans and information about market share.

Can I pick more than 1?

Exactly what gives these committees the authority to demand this private information on these companies. I haven't heard of a court order or any LE functions granted to these legislative committees. If the various Insurance Co. comply with this demand, they will be openning themselves up to a public rectal exam that will leave them covered in shit. Whether they've done anything wrong or not.

I would LOVE to see one of the CEOs say "Senator I would be happy to answer your letter before the whole Senate in an open hearing" and then have him deliver my line!

No, you can only vote once, I tried to change that but it won't let me 

Born in Los Angeles, California, Waxman attended college at UCLA, earning a bachelor's degree in political science in 1961 and a degree from UCLA's law school in 1964. After graduating, he worked as a lawyer.

 How about this on C-Span "Congressman, You were a lawyer for 5 years and you've been sitting on your ass here for the last 35 years, what the hell do YOU know about managing ANYTHING ? now trim that stupid mustache and STFU".
