Lawmakers in the state of Georgia, investigating election campaign finance violations, have issued a subpoena to Stacey Abrams, who has lost two races to be governor and consistently has taken the position of election denier, refusing to admit the legitimacy of her election failures.
She’s known for “numerous instances” where she’s claimed election activity allegedly unfairly affected the results.
She’s also long been an activist for “fair” elections, repeatedly challenging her state’s compliance with the federal Voting Rights Act.
Now a report from Fox reveals the Georgia Senate is ramping up its investigation into alleged campaign finance violations and they are tied to Abrams’ activist group.
The Senate Special Committee on Investigations has confirmed that Abrams, along with New Georgia Project leaders Lauren Groh-Wargo and Nsé Ufot, have been ordered to appear before lawmakers this week.
Sen. Greg Dolezal, the vice chairman, issued a statement that said, “This committee has a responsibility to follow the facts wherever they lead. Georgia law requires transparency and accountability in our elections.”
The state Ethics Commission earlier concluded that the New Georgia Project and its affiliated Action Fund violated campaign finance laws during the 2018 elections.
The groups admitted 16 violations earlier this year and corrected them with a $300,000 fine, and the New Georgia Project dissolved in 2025 because of exploding financial headaches and legal obstacles.
Lawmakers pursuing the investigation now want to know who was making those decisions behind the violations.
“The people of Georgia deserve to know who was involved, what decisions were made and how millions of dollars flowed through organizations that admitted to violating our campaign finance laws,” Dolezal said.
