A key House committee is expanding its investigation into the major Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue. The Committee on House Administration, led by Rep. Bryan Steil, R-Wis., is looking into allegations that ActBlue is circumventing campaign donation laws, potentially enabling fraud on the platform.
In a letter to top officials at the Federal Election Commission (FEC), Steil called for immediate action to require political campaigns to verify donors' card verification value (CVV) for online credit or debit card contributions. He also proposed banning online donations from gift cards or prepaid credit cards.
