Cong. Danny Davis received paid trip from terror group

Congressman Danny Davis represents Chicago's West Side and the city's western suburbs. Somehow, the below article from NBC 5 Chicago left out Davis' party affilitation. He's a Democrat.

Rep. Danny Davis is on the defense Thursday over a recent trip that was sponsored by a known terrorist group.

Davis and an aide went to Sri Lanka last year on a trip paid for by the Tamil Tigers. That group is on the government's list of known terrorists groups for its use of suicide bombers and child soldiers.

Davis maintains he didn't know the Tigers paid for the trip.
