Daley says he took ride on charity's private jet

Mayor Richard Daley says he accepted flights "once or twice" from a nonprofit company under investigation by the IRS and Congress.

Daley's spokeswoman Jacquelyn Heard said last week that the mayor took one flight in September 2006 to Singapore courtesy of Educap. She denied a CBS News report the Daleys took 58 flights over a five-year period.

At an unrelated news conference with South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu on Tuesday, Daley was asked how often he'd flown on the jet. He said "once or twice," and added that reporters have "got all the facts on that."

Educap is being investigated for allegedly abusing its tax-exempt status by charging high interest on charitable student loans and the lavish perks it provides its CEO.
