A political action committee run by the wife of Mark Meadows, former President Donald Trump’s chief of staff, has significantly increased its spending on legal bills, paying a high-profile law firm that handles cases including white-collar crime and congressional investigations.
But the group’s leaders aren’t talking about the reasons for the larger payments to lawyers.
Debra Meadows is the executive director of Right Women PAC, an organization founded for the 2020 election that helped fund the primary and winnable general election campaigns of conservative, pro-Trump candidates seeking U.S. House seats — including Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert, who both won their races and joined the House Freedom Caucus that Meadows co-founded as a congressman.
