New Mexico Ethics Commission Sues Nonprofit Linked to Democratic Governor Candidate
The New Mexico Ethics Commission has initiated a lawsuit against a nonprofit organization led by the campaign manager of Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Jennifer Bregman. The lawsuit targets alleged violations of state campaign finance laws, claiming the nonprofit, “New Mexico Unlocking Justice,” improperly facilitated contributions intended for Bregman’s campaign.
The commission asserts that the nonprofit served as a conduit for “dark money,” allowing donors to avoid disclosing their identities, which raises serious ethical concerns. Investigations revealed that the organization had been involved in significant financial transactions that allegedly circumvented legal requirements regarding campaign donations.
Bregman, in response to these allegations, stated that her campaign has followed all regulations concerning fundraising and has not benefited from any illegal contributions. Furthermore, she emphasized that her team would fully cooperate with the Ethics Commission to resolve this issue.
The case adds to the scrutiny surrounding political funding in New Mexico, drawing attention to the significant role of nonprofits in campaign financing. As the gubernatorial race heats up, watchdogs and the public will be closely observing how this lawsuit unfolds and its potential implications for the election.
