MI-13: Thanedar left crypto holdings out of latest campaign finance report

[RandySF]

Washington ― Two-term Michigan U.S. Rep. Shri Thanedar hasn't filed a complete campaign finance report that discloses the value of his congressional campaign's crypto investments covering the first three months of the year.

When asked about the omission, Thanedar told The Detroit News last week by text that he intended to file an amendment to update his April 15 filing with the Federal Election Commission; however, he hasn't done so more than a week later.

Thanedar said Friday he’s expecting a revised report on Wednesday.

The Detroit News first reported on how the millionaire businessman in 2023 took nearly $4 million in cash from his campaign and invested it in a cryptocurrency exchange-traded fund ― a move that campaign finance experts say is rare and financially risky, though allowed under federal law.

1. Why do some of these congress people have so much trouble accurately filling out a report, until called out on it.
