Leavitt’s Failed Congress Bid Leaves Campaign in Debt, Facing Creditors
Karoline Leavitt, current White House press secretary, faces unresolved campaign debt from her 2022 congressional run, owing over $326,000 to numerous creditors. Despite the campaign raising no funds during the recent months, much of the debt stems from unreturned illegal contributions. The FEC, facing a lack of commissioners, cannot enforce any penalties for campaign finance violations. This situation underscores the lack of recourse creditors have when campaigns fail to pay their debts.
