Fallin: Daughter’s trailer at governor’s mansion must go
Mary Fallin’s adult daughter will move her trailer off of the governor’s mansion ground, Fallin’s spokesman said Tuesday, in response to public concerns over her living on taxpayer-funded land. “She had one living arrangement that fell through, so the governor said, ‘Why don’t you come put it on the mansion property?'”. “She would be using that electricity if she lived in the house, or if she got a drink of water out of the faucet, or if she flushed the toilet in the house”, Gov. Fallin told KFOR, an Oklahoma City television station.
Mary Fallin’s 28-year-old daughter, has been living in the trailer while searching for a permanent home since April. Another of Christensen’s sons lives in a garage apartment on the mansion grounds. The governor’s mansion, however, is overseen by the state and is therefore exempt from city code enforcement, making it perfectly legal for the RV to be on the property.
Fallin has presented this whole thing as simply having her children home for the summer.
“Wade and I are very fortunate to have a close knit family and are really blessed having some of our kids home for the summer”, Fallin said.
“Family is very important to us as parents”.
Alex Weintz, Gov. Fallin’s spokesperson, added that neither Christina nor her mother had violated a state law. She responded to the criticism by wearing the warbonnet on stage and as well as, according to Raw Story, “a Native American-style fringed shawl with the word “Sheep” on the back”. “Who is paying her bills”, a caller asked NewsChannel4.
