Kamala Harris’ selection today of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate in the 2024 presidential election comes just days after the Freedom Foundation filed a series of complaints with state and federal authorities documenting what appears to have been an illegal scheme executed by the Pennsylvania State Education Association (PSEA) and the Democratic Governors Association (DGA) to launder $1.5 million in teachers’ union dues to back Gov. Josh Shapiro’s 2022 gubernatorial campaign.
One of the three complaints, filed with the Pennsylvania Department of State, the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General, and the Dauphin County District attorney accuses the Walz-chaired DGA of failing to report receipt of significant contributions from PSEA’s political fund in violation of Pennsylvania’s Election Code.
The Pennsylvania Attorney General’s office has confirmed that the complaint has been forwarded to its Criminal Division for “further review.” If confirmed, the alleged violations may result in civil fines or criminal prosecution of PSEA and/or DGA officials.
