Correspondence from Congressman Darrell Issa (CA-48) to the Treasury Department and the FBI was featured in a\u00a0Washington Examiner<\/em>\u00a0exclusive report<\/a>\u00a0last week. The article outlined Rep. Issa\u2019s serious concern that for several years, the nationwide Democrat fundraising platform ActBlue maintained a business relationship with an organization tied to terror funding.The\u00a0Examiner\u00a0<\/em>detailed that Rep. Issa is investigating reports that ActBlue provided material support to\u00a0terrorism\u00a0by working with the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI). The West Bank-based group is the “face” of the BDS National Committee, which has included Palestinian National and Islamic Forces, a coalition represented by U.S.-designated terror groups, such as the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and Hamas.<\/p>\n

Rep. Issa \u2013 a senior member of both the Judiciary and Foreign Affairs Committee \u2013 said:\u00a0\u201cThe undeniable and continued collaboration between these two entities raises serious concerns of the enabling of terror-related activity and may also constitute money laundering crimes as well as violations of international law. It is also relevant that no part of the reporting from the Washington Examiner has been contradicted or denied by ActBlue.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
