Federal officials press GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert over apparent personal use of campaign funds
Source: CNBC
Federal officials are pressing Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., for answers on the apparent personal use of thousands of dollars in campaign funds.
A letter from the Federal Election Commission to the treasurer of Boeberts 2022 reelection campaign inquired about four Venmo payments totaling more than $6,000.
FEC filings show the payments came between May and June for whats described on the forms as personal expense of Lauren Boebert billed to campaign account in error. The filings then note that the expense has been reimbursed.
A spokesman for Boebert told CNBC that the personal expenses were already reimbursed but did not say what the payments were for.

Why didn't he write the check?
Oh, and I also see that SHE failed to report that income as required by election law.
Funny how all of these little things happen, isn't it?
