Michigan Democrat Rep. Elissa Slotkin has been named in a complaint filed with the House Ethics Committee by a nonprofit government watchdog, citing a video in which the congresswoman appears to ask a political action committee (PAC) for campaign contributions.

“On May 11, 2022, Rep. Slotkin attended a virtual meeting of the Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA). She appears to have attended the meeting from her congressional office, presumably with congressional office equipment, with her congressional staffer present, and during the meeting discussed campaign strategy and solicited campaign contributions,” the Washington-based Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) said in the complaint filed June 9.
