What's the truth about the ads attacking Amy Klobuchar for a million dollar earmark to a Somali non-profit?
The organization named in the ads never received any funding. The proposed funding was taken out of the bill after Amy Klobuchar requested it be removed.
Amy Klobuchar is a former prosecutor with a strong plan to root out fraud. When she learned about the fraud, she went to the top of the Justice Department to make sure we had the prosecutors needed to go after fraud. As a result, the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s office got the largest increase in personnel of any office in the country.
