Transportation Sec. Elaine Chao's public appearances with her family members who run an international shipping company have drawn condemnation from government watchdogs and House Dems who argue Chao appears to have used her office to benefit her family
The criticism has largely focused on the way in which Chao has associated her government office and title with her father, James S.C. Chao, the founder of the Foremost Group, a US-based shipping company with business ties to China.
Founded by Chao's father in 1964, Foremost Group describes itself as"a global leader in the dry bulk shipping industry" that today transports more than 15 million tons of goods, including grains, soybeans, iron ore and coal, internationally each year, according to the company's website.While the company is headquartered in New York City, a large portion of the materials it ships goes to China.
