Complaint against Let's Go Washington could end up sent to AG's office
It’s been a year since the filing of allegations that a political committee led by hedge fund manager Brian Heywood violated campaign finance laws last year in the course of gathering signatures for six initiatives, including three on the ballot in November.
In the ensuing months, staff of the Public Disclosure Commission conducted interviews, gathered documents and held initial hearings but reached no conclusions on whether wrongdoing occurred.
An alliance of progressive groups opposed to the ballot measures say that’s long enough and want the commission to hand the complaint over to Washington’s attorney general. Commissioners will consider the request Thursday.
Lawyers representing SEIU 775, Washington Conservation Action, Planned Parenthood and Civic Ventures argue in a July 17 letter that the move is needed because the alleged violations by Let’s Go Washington “have a significant ongoing impact on the public.”
