Two House Dems don’t disclose contributions from Ilhan Omar Anti-Semitic congresswoman shares massive fundraising with four fellow freshmen

April 16, 2019   

(Free Beacon) The reelection campaigns for two freshman Democratic members of the House, Reps. Lucy McBath (D., Ga.) and Jahana Hayes (D., Conn.), failed to disclose large contributions received from the campaign of fellow freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.).

The contributions were revealed in Omar’s most recent filing, which disclosed transfers of $2,000 to both McBath and Hayes on March 27 of this year. Neither the filing from McBath nor from Hayes discloses the payments from their Minnesota colleague.

Reps. Lauren Underwood (D., Ill.) and Haley Stevens (D., Mich.) also received contributions from Omar, on March 27 and March 28, respectively. Both Underwood and Stevens included the contributions in their first-quarter fundraising reports.
