PRO-HILLARY PAC ACCUSED OF ILLEGAL ACTIVITY IN FEC LAWSUIT

[Geee]

Free Beacon:

An anti-Hillary Clinton PAC filed a lawsuit on Thursday to compel the Federal Election Commission to determine whether the pro-Clinton Super PAC Ready for Hillary is violating campaign finance laws.

 

The Stop Hillary PAC originally filed a complaint with the FEC in January, claiming that Ready for Hillary may be illegally conducting authorized campaign activity on behalf of Hillary Clinton.

 

According to the complaint, Ready for Hillary used an email list owned by Hillary Clinton’s Senate committee to send out fundraising letters. Ready for Hillary also allegedly sent out the solicitations using the email address info@HillaryClinton.com—a website that the complaint says is owned by Clinton’s authorized committee.

 

The Ready for Hillary email stated “now is the time to get our support for Hillary organized and ready for 2016,” according to the lawsuit.

 

The lawsuit said the fundraising email would have been “‘deployed’ by Hillary Clinton or a vendor employed by the authorized committee to do so” and would “require approval by the list owner, in this case Hillary Clinton, of the specific content being deployed.”
