↑ "IN PA. CAMPAIGN-FINANCE DISCLOSURES, ALL IS NOT CLEAR". The Philadelphia Inquirer. 1987-05-01. In 1985, state Sen. Hardy Williams rented a building on the 5100 block of Walnut Street in West Philadelphia to house his legislative office and his campaign headquarters. The bill for the year was $18,725. Half the money came from the taxpayers, from a Senate account that pays the rent on district offices. Half came from Williams' campaign fund, money contributed by individuals and political action committees to help his re-election effort.
