Mike Levin must reject foreign money benefitting his campaign

Mike Levin says he opposes dark money, but he received support from foreign billionaire Hansjörg Wyss laundered through an opaque web of dark money vehicles.

AP reported today on how Wyss’ foreign dark money network, which paid for TV ads benefitting Levin, skirts the ban on foreign money in campaigns.

Mike Levin said, “We must fight the influence of dark money in our politics” and “working with a foreign adversary to influence a federal election is an obvious crime.” Yet, Levin benefitted from Wyss’ foreign influence. 

“Mike Levin is a liar and a hypocrite bankrolled by a foreign billionaire’s dark money conspiracy. Levin must reject the foreign dark money used to prop up his political campaign or be complicit in this perversion of the law.” – NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen
