Wisconsin Commission Recommends Felony Charges Against Trump PAC for Alleged Campaign Finance Scheme
-
The Wisconsin Ethics Commission recommended felony charges against Trump's Save America PAC and other Republicans for an alleged scheme to skirt campaign finance laws in a 2022 primary race.
-
The scheme allegedly involved funneling money through county Republican parties to the campaign of Adam Steen, who was challenging Assembly Speaker Robin Vos.
-
The commission alleges the donations from Save America to the county parties exceeded state individual donation limits with the intent to then donate unlimited sums to Steen's campaign.
-
The bipartisan 6-member commission recommended district attorneys investigate and prosecute those involved. The DAs have 60 days to act before the commission can refer it to the State Attorney General.
-
This marks nearly 100 felony charges Trump currently faces in state and local jurisdictions over various investigations into his political and business affairs.
