Far-left outspoken Texas Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett could find herself in hot water with the Federal Election Commission.
An investigation has been launched into her campaign finances, which were raised via the controversial Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue, after a complaint was filed by The Coolidge-Reagan Foundation, a conservative watchdog group,
“The respondents will be notified of this complaint within five business days,” FEC assistant general counsel for complaints examination and legal administration Wanda D. Brown said to the group.
“You will be notified as soon as the Federal Election Commission (FEC) takes final action on your client’s complaint. Should you receive any additional information in this matter, please forward it to the Office of the General Counsel,” she said.
“The FEC opened an investigation. There is a process, but they are investigating,” Dan Backer, a Washington lawyer representing the Coolidge-Reagan Foundation, told the outlet.
The investigation relates to 53 separate donations for a total of $595 to Crockett’s campaign through ActBlue supposedly given by a 73-year-old Texas resident named Randy Best, the FEC complaint said.
