The House of Representatives came under fire for deciding to spend such an amount on cars during an economic recession.
He also said that the recession will not stop the Federal Government or the lawmakers from doing their work.
Gaza said “In a recession, we will all put on our thinking caps. We are working; these are committees’ cars and they are not the personal property of members.
