TX-14 Republican Candidate Randy Weber Raised $22,500 in Illegal Funds
Texas Tea Party Republican Randy Weber has raised $22,500 in illegal funds for his general election campaign in the TX-14 Congressional race against Democrat Nick Lampson. Weber has broken the law - he needs to return the funds immediately, not wait until after the election.
Federal election laws limit the amount a candidate can receive from any individual donor to $2,500 for a general election campaign. Looking through Weber's reports, it is clear that seven different individual donors have given Weber contributions that double or triple the legal limit, from $5,000 to $7,500. When it's all added up, it totals $22,500 in excess, illegal contributions Randy Weber has received from his campaign.
Here are two ways you can contact Randy Weber RIGHT NOW and demand he return his illegal contributions!
1) Email his campaign directly and tell him to return the money immediately.
2) Tweet at Randy Weber (@WeberforTexas) and tell him to return the money immediately.
