Former elections chief: Dejoy scheme to elect Republicans 'clearly illegal'

By Oliver Willis -September 14, 2020 2:01 PM

Louis DeJoy became Trump's postmaster general after working to fundraise for Republican candidates.

Former Federal Elections Commission Chair Ann Ravel said on Monday that Postmaster General Louis DeJoy was involved in an "illegal straw donor scheme" and was the "poster child" for breaking federal campaign finance law.

Ravel made her comments in her opening statement during a hearing held by the House Oversight Committee on DeJoy's leadership and conflicts of interest.

DeJoy has been under fire for changes he has made to the U.S. Postal Service ahead of the election that have led to major slowdowns in the processing of mail for delivery.

A recent Washington Post investigation found that during his time leading the firm New Breed Logistics, several employees said they were urged by DeJoy or his lieutenants to make donations to Republicans running for federal office. DeJoy later reimbursed the employees for those contributions through bonuses from the corporation, according to the Post.
