Former DeLay aide paid thinktank to advance Washington lobbying efforts

Policy nonprofit (NCPPR) where Abramoff was director funded DeLay's overseas junkets

The former deputy chief of staff to onetime House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX) advised the manufacturer of Stoli Vodka to make a $20,000 contribution to the National Center for Public Policy Research, a conservative thinktank, which wrote an editorial supporting Stoli shortly thereafter, RAW STORY has found.

DeLay deputy Tony Rudy got an $8,000 kickback on the deal, according to his plea agreement. In apparent exchange for the tax-deductible donation, the nonprofit's president wrote an article aiding the company's lobbying effort.
