Rep. David Schweikert’s (R-Ariz.) campaign committee will pay a $125,000 fine to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) after acknowledging it misreported expenditures and used some donor money for personal purposes.
In a conciliation agreement with the FEC signed in January and released last week, Schweikert’s campaign committee acknowledged that FEC investigators had found reason to believe that the misreported spending had been willful.
In a separate agreement with the FEC, Schwab admitted to violating federal campaign law by failing to maintain proper records. Schwab will pay a $7,500 penalty.
