CNN —US Capitol Police have received a subpoena in the grand jury investigation into Rep. Cori Bush, sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
FEC filings show that from January 19, 2023, through April 3, 2023, Bush’s campaign paid Merritts $15,000 for “security services” in six payments of $2,500.
CNN asked Bush’s campaign if either she or Merritts were interviewed by the FBI, and if the campaign could provide timesheets for Merritts.
“I also believe in transparency which is why I can confirm that the Department of Justice is reviewing my campaign’s spending on security services.
She maintained she has not used any federal tax dollars for personal security services and that she complied with House rules.
