U.S. Chamber Of Commerce And It's Foreign Donors. Foreign Money Used to Endorse Rand Paul?

Rand Paul does your U.S. Chamber of Commerce endorsement mean you're a candidate supported by foreign interest? Does that mean if you're elected you'll represent the folks in Abu Dhabi. It sure sounds like it to me. Here's your chance to show your independence. All you have to do is tell the U.S. Chamber of Commerce you reject their endorsement. Rand Paul the choice is yours. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and their foreign pals or your Kentucky constituents.

Hillbilly :: U.S. Chamber Of Commerce And It's Foreign Donors. Foreign Money Used to Endorse Rand Paul?
We've wrote about the influence of American Crossroads, Crossroads GPS and their links with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, here and here.
Now we know, according to Think Progress, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is fundraising for its general fund, which is used to pay for political attack Ads, from foreign nationals and foreign corporations, possibly in violation with longstanding campaign finance law.

We know that Senator Mitch McConnell has ties to American Crossroads, Crossroads GPS and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. We also know American Crossroads, Crossroads GPS and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce are Rand Paul supporters. Mitch McConnell was the was the beneficiary of a U.S. Chamber of Commerce attack Ad against his opponent Bruce Lunsford in 2008 when his pal Steven Law was US Chamber of Commerce Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel.

Steven Law:


1990: Manager of Senator Mitch McConnell’s first reelection campaign.

1991-1997: Senator Mitch McConnell's Chief of Staff.

1998-2000: National Republican Senatorial Committee Executive Director.

2001-2007: US Labor Department Deputy Secretary and Chief of Staff.

2007-2009: US Chamber of Commerce Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel.

2010: American Crossroads President & Chief Executive Officer.

There was a time when the U.S. Chamber of Commerce could do, what I consider, it's dirty work discreetly and under the radar, but those days are over and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has been exposed for what it really is and I'm sure there will be more to come. A lot more!

MoveOn.org initiate an immediate criminal investigation (4.00 / 2)
"On behalf of the more than five million members of MoveOn.org Political Action across the nation, I am writing to request that the Department initiate an immediate criminal investigation into the use by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce of contributions by foreign nationals to pay for advertising advocating the election or defeat of candidates for federal office. Information brought to light today by Think Progress, a project of the nonpartisan nonprofit organization Center for American Progress Action Fund, strongly implies that the Chamber has willfully violated federal campaign finance laws that outlaw the use of foreign cash in U.S. elections."
