WASHINGTON — Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s dormant U.S. House campaign fund has donated to a newly formed political action committee that uses the same Kansas-based bank and bears the name of his new political slogan, according to financial disclosures.
The Champion American Values committee was created on February 22. Two days later, Pompeo’s former House committee, Pompeo for Kansas, Inc. contributed $155,000 to the new PAC.
Pompeo for Kansas had just over $845,000 at the end of March, according to the committee’s filing Thursday with the Federal Election Commission. Both Champion American Values and Pompeo for Kansas have the same treasurer, Robert F. Carlin.
