Sen. Martha McSally accepted more than $40,000 in campaign donations from senators embroiled in a scandal.
Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ) has accepted more than $40,000 in campaign donations from individuals embroiled in an insider trading scandal.
After receiving a private congressional briefing about the coronavirus crisis on Jan. 24, several Republican senators made questionable stock trades, resulting in allegations that they profited from insider knowledge.
Sens. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue of Georgia, and Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina have all fallen under a cloud of suspicion. All three maintain they are innocent of any wrongdoing.
Between 2014 and 2019, McSally received $40,834 in campaign contributions from Loeffler, her husband, Jeff Sprecher, chairman of the New York Stock Exchange (who is also implicated in the scandal), and PACs run by Perdue and Burr, according to Federal Election Commission reporting.
