'Tipping the scales': House GOP leaders rip ActBlue after Dem fundraising giant hit with subpoena

Top House Republicans are coalescing behind the House Administration Committee's subpoena of Democratic fundraising giant ActBlue.

Republicans have accused the company of having insufficient donor verification standards. Committee Chair Bryan Steil, R-Wis., has argued that the site is vulnerable to fraudulent and illegal foreign donations, though ActBlue has said it "rigorously protects donors' security."

"ActBlue has a lot of explaining to do, and Chairman Steil is right to demand answers on these very serious allegations of foreign funds being funneled through the platform," Rep. Richard Hudson, R-N.C., chairman of House Republicans' campaign arm, told Fox News Digital.

"Just as we must protect the right to vote for American citizens, we must ensure our elections are free from foreign financial interference."

House GOP Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., also credited Steil and pointed out that his accusations come amid reports that China and Iran are trying to influence the election.

"Malign foreign actors are attempting to hijack American elections through the Far Left Democrat fundraising platform ActBlue by tipping the scales in favor of Kamala Harris and Congressional Democrats," Stefanik said. "It has never been more critical to ensure American elections are free from foreign manipulation."
