WASHINGTON — A report for Rep. George Santos’ main campaign finance committee filed with the Federal Election Commission this week by a new treasurer indicated Santos was not the source of a $125,000 loan made to his campaign.
But the 2022 year-end report for the Devolder Santos for Congress committee did check off the box indicating that he used his own personal funds for a $500,000 loan, contradicting an earlier amended report that had left that box unchecked.
An amended filing to the FEC last week raised questions when it left unchecked a box attesting that the $500,000 loan and the $125,000 loan to his campaign came from "Personal Funds of the Candidate," a contradiction of previous filings.
