House Minority Leader John Boehner's political action committee -- Freedom Project -- has reportedly contributed thousands of dollars to the campaign of Republican congressional candidate Rich Iott, who recently came under fire after footage surfaced of him taking part in World War II reenactments dressed in a Nazi uniform.
According to Politico, quarterly donation documents filed with the Federal Election Commission on Wednesday show that Boehner's PAC gave $5,000 to Iott, who is running to oust Democratic incumbent Rep. Marcy Kaptur from Ohio's 9th district House seat.
Don Seymour, a spokesman for the Freedom Project, told POLITICO Boehner would make no effort to recoup the money.
Iott spokesman Matt Parker said there would be no reason for Boehner to withdraw his help.
