Democratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib violated the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 by paying herself a salary from her campaign after securing victory in the 2018 general election, the House Ethics Committee unanimously ruled on Friday.
The Ethics committee found that Tlaib violated FECAs personal use restrictions by paying herself $10,800 from her campaign when she was no longer a congressional candidate in late 2018 and ordered her to repay that amount back to her campaign within one year, the committee said in a report.
The committee determined that the evidence is sufficient to support a determination that a portion of the salary payments that Representative Tlaib received after the 2018 general election was inconsistent with the requirements outlined by [FECA] and its implementing regulations, the report read.

LMAO!!! Tlaib will write the check to her campaign then the campaign will turn around and pay her husband's firm the same amount.
Then there is Ilan Omar’s marriage and immigration fraud....and subsequent illegal payments to her new husband/campaign manager......
Truly. Appointment to an important committee comes next.
So?
Tlaib just won her Dim primary!
Despite her many violations, we’re almost certainly stuck with her for at least 2 more years. PHOOEY!!!!
I’m sure a sternly worded letter is being written.
