EXCLUSIVE — If ActBlue fails to comply with House Republicans’ latest demand for documents, Congress may compel its leadership to testify and hold the organization’s CEO in contempt, a GOP aide familiar with the matter told the Washington Examiner.
In a letter sent to ActBlue on Tuesday, Reps. Bryan Steil (R-WI) and Jim Jordan (R-OH) alleged that ActBlue, a massive Democratic fundraising platform, failed to provide them with documents they had subpoenaed in 2025, when lawmakers began digging into allegations that the platform illegally accepted foreign political donations. The congressmen pointed out that a recent New York Times report referenced documents Congress had not received but appeared to fit the description of what they had demanded from ActBlue. On April 2, the New York Times had reported that ActBlue’s lawyers told the payment processor that it may have misled Congress regarding how much it had actually done to block foreign donations up to that point.
