Two complaints filed against U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) for alleged campaign finance violations while she was a state lawmaker have been reviewed by Minnesota authorities, who now are set to issue rulings in the case, according to an April 1 report.

In 2018, state Rep. Steve Drazkowski, a Republican, filed complaints with the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board, alleging that Omar improperly spent nearly $6,000 in campaign funds for personal use, including other payments to her divorce attorney and travel expenses.
