Watchdog Files Complaint on Mystery Bush Super PAC Donors
via ABC News
“Two companies that gave $200,000 to a pro-Jeb Bush super PAC are obscuring the identities of the real donors, a Washington watchdog group alleges in a complaint it filed Thursday with the Federal Election Commission.
The complaint highlights how super political action committees — critical helpers for most of the 2016 presidential candidates — are not always as transparent as voters may think. Super PACs regularly file information about their donors to the FEC. But sometimes those donors are mysterious companies.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, a political spending watchdog known as CREW, alleges that two limited-liability companies, or LLCs, are “straw donors” meant to conceal the true sources of the money.”
