By Nicole Weatherholtz    |   Tuesday, 14 April 2026 01:13 PM EDT

https://www.newsmax.com/politics/republicans-congress-actblue/2026/04/14/id/1252885/

House Republicans are intensifying their probe into Democrat fundraising powerhouse ActBlue, demanding key documents they say the organization failed to hand over — and warning of consequences if it continues to resist.

In a letter sent Tuesday to ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones, GOP leaders of three major House committees accused the group of potentially obstructing their investigation, citing recent reporting that raised concerns about its internal practices and transparency.

The lawmakers said the report suggested wrongdoing "including through misleading statements and noncompliance with our subpoenas."

The letter was signed by House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil of Wisconsin, Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio, and Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer of Kentucky — signaling a coordinated push from top Republican investigators.

The move follows revelations that ActBlue's own legal advisers warned the group it may have provided inaccurate information to Congress about how it screens donations, particularly those potentially linked to foreign sources. Federal law strictly prohibits foreign nationals without permanent residency from contributing to U.S. federal campaigns.

Republicans — along with President Donald Trump — have zeroed in on ActBlue as part of a broader effort to examine Democrats' online fundraising machine, which has fueled campaigns from local races to the White House.

Last year, Trump directed the Justice Department to investigate whether the platform processed donations from non-U.S. citizens.

Despite the scrutiny, ActBlue continues to raise large sums. The organization announced Tuesday it raised $568 million in the first quarter of 2026 alone.

Democrats have blasted the investigation as partisan, claiming Republicans are targeting ActBlue while ignoring WinRed, the GOP's main fundraising platform. Still, the questions surrounding ActBlue's internal controls have intensified following the legal warnings.

According to the New York Times report, the law firm Covington & Burling told ActBlue in early 2025 that a 2023 letter signed by Wallace-Jones posed "a substantial risk for ActBlue." While the firm did not identify specific illegal donations, it reportedly found that parts of the organization’s description of its vetting process were inaccurate.

Kimberly Peeler-Allen, chair of ActBlue's board, previously said "less than 1 percent" of 2024-cycle contributions showed signs of originating from foreign countries.

An ActBlue spokeswoman, De'Andra Roberts-LaBoo, dismissed the allegations as partisan and politically motivated.

"This latest letter from Congressional Republicans is a desperate attempt to deflect from the Right's ongoing issues. They know no platform does more to protect the integrity of small-dollar democracy than ActBlue," she said in a statement.

"To no surprise, this also comes on the heels of a record Democratic fundraising quarter ahead of the midterms. The reality is that we have always been forthcoming with Congress, and we will not be intimidated by partisan theater," Roberts-LaBoo continued.

"Our focus remains on providing the secure infrastructure the Democratic movement needs to win this November."

The fallout from those findings reportedly led to internal upheaval, including high-level resignations and a split with the law firm.

In their latest demand, House Republicans are seeking additional materials, including a resignation letter from former in-house lawyer Aaron Ting and a Slack message from another legal staffer alleging retaliation by ActBlue leadership.

They are also requesting records tied "to the potential or actual use of ActBlue by foreign nationals to make political contributions" and documents "relating to ActBlue's policies, practices or procedures for preventing, deterring or detecting political contributions by foreign nationals."

Republicans made clear they are prepared to escalate if ActBlue does not comply.

"Given ActBlue's demonstrated history of misleading Congress, there is considerable reason to believe that ActBlue may have deliberately withheld this responsive material to impede our investigation," the letter states. "Therefore, it is imperative that ActBlue promptly produce all materials responsive to the committees' subpoenas — including, but not limited to, the items above."

"Absent these steps, the committees are prepared to use available mechanisms to enforce our subpoenas," the lawmakers added.

ActBlue has until April 28 to turn over the requested documents.
