Harris and Trump pressed by watchdogs to disclose top fundraisers

EXCLUSIVE — A coalition of watchdog groups is asking former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris to disclose their top “bundler” fundraisers, according to letters sent Thursday to the Harris and Trump campaigns.

The 13 watchdogs said in the letters to Harris and Trump that releasing information on their bundlers, who are typically wealthy people who solicit donations for candidates, is important so voters can have better transparency about who may be influencing the 2024 elections. Candidates are not required under federal law to report their bundlers unless they are federal lobbyists, but campaigns have long done so willingly.
