Report: 'Company Behind Troubled Obamacare Website Donated Heavily To Republicans In 2012'

The GOP’s chief scandal investigator, Rep. Darrell Issa, (R) Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman, received a $2000 check from CGI’s PAC according to Federal Election Commission records and Open Secrets.

Several Republican House Members, many that sit on the Appropriations Committee, including Committee Chair Hal Roger (R-Ky) received more from CGI, the general contractor of Healthcare.gov, than did House Democrats in campaign contributions in 2012.

The newest Republican attack on Obamacare alleges that there may have been some sweetheart deals offered to CGI by the Obama Administration because of CGI’s campaign contributions in 2012 to the Obama Campaign.

More money was given to House Republicans by CGI than to House Democrats- Total to Republicans: $48,000; Total to Democrats: $32,000.
