The Post reports that the Republican National Committee recently amened some of its campaign finance reports to disclose debts owed by the committee.
“Failure to disclose debt is a common violation, but the FEC is likely to take this very seriously,” said Brett Kappel, a campaign finance lawyer with Arent Fox who has worked for candidates from both parties. “A failure to report a debt of that magnitude doesn’t let the public or the candidates or the opposing party know the true financial state of the committee.”
