A law enforcement organization will examine Nancy Pelosi, House Speaker’s member. This is after reports that Paul showed his card to officers when he was arrested for DUI in May. The group has confirmed this to the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Any active member of The California Highway Patrol 11-99 (CHP 11-99) Foundation who brings the group’s “name or property into law enforcement contact” is violating its terms and conditions agreement, said a CHP 11-99 spokeswoman.
” We will wait for the result of this trial, and we will assess Mr. Pelosi’s membership status after we have all the facts,” the spokesperson told DCNF. “If it is proven he violated our terms and conditions, we will revoke his membership and we would request that all membership items be returned as they are property of the 11-99 Foundation.”
“Once we receive those items, we would issue a refund of any contribution he’s made to the Foundation,” the spokeswoman added. (RELATED: Paul Pelosi Pleads Not Guilty To DUI Charges)
Pelosi allegedly attempted to hand his membership card to officers along with his drivers license after being pulled over on May 28 upon getting in an accident, according to multiple reports. According to multiple reports, he was found with a blood alcohol level of 0. 08 or higher and arrested.
CHP 11-99 gives scholarships to the children of California Highway Patrol employees. Since launching in 1982, it has provided roughly $38 million in academic scholarships for the employees’ children and more than $45 million in support to highway patrol employees’ families, according to CHP 11-99.

“We were made aware of the incident involving Mr. Pelosi by news media sources and understand this is an ongoing investigation so we do not yet have all of the facts,” said the CHP 11-99 spokeswoman.
“Members of the 11-99 Foundation are issued member ID cards which include the year they joined, current membership level, and their member ID number as is common practice with numerous membership-based foundations and associations,” said the spokeswoman. These cards can be used to identify members and show pride in our membership.
A lawyer representing Pelosi didn’t respond to our request for comment.
