Top House Republicans are putting ActBlue, the Democratic fundraising powerhouse, under the microscope, questioning its donor verification practices and raising concerns over potential foreign influence in U.S. elections. On Tuesday, Rep. Bryan Steil (R-WI), Chair of the House Administration Committee, issued a subpoena to ActBlue demanding documents that could reveal whether donations are being properly vetted for foreign involvement. This inquiry follows allegations that the platform’s lack of robust security measures could make it easier for foreign actors to funnel money into U.S. political campaigns, a serious breach of federal election laws.
