FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THURSDAY, MARCH 2 KELLY LOEFFLER APPLAUDS LATEST STACEY ABRAMS INVESTIGATION ATLANTA – Today, former U.S. Senator and Greater Georgia Chairwoman Kelly Loeffler applauded state officials for launching a new investigation into Stacey Abrams' New Georgia Project (NGP) following extensive reports about the group's financial impropriety. “The web of political 'voting rights' organizations built to fuel Stacey Abrams’ celebrity and fundraising is under needed scrutiny. Not only did these groups invest millions to perpetuate the voter suppression myth, but they did so using apparently illegal tactics," said Loeffler. "These allegations impair the work of every legitimate organization working honestly and legally to empower and protect Georgia voters. This is why I applaud our state's oversight agencies for taking action to investigate fraudulent front groups in Georgia, before they can interfere in our next election cycle." Greater Georgia initially called for an investigation into NGP last November after top leaders within the organization accused it of gross financial misconduct. Since then, further reporting by the Washington Free Beacon has revealed a deluge of potentially criminal behavior by NGP, including failure to file financial disclosures with the IRS, illegal fundraising, and lying about contributions and expenditures. Although this latest investigation has been launched by the Georgia Secretary of State's office, NGP has been under investigation for malfeasance by the State Ethics Commission since 2018, when it illegally campaigned for Abrams and refused to disclose more than $4 million in contributions to her campaign. Abrams herself has faced financial challenges in recent months, disclosing almost $1.5 million in debt from her failed gubernatorial campaign in 2022, despite raising well over $100 million for the race. Greater Georgia, launched by former U.S. Senator Kelly Loeffler in 2021, is a 501(c4) nonpartisan nonprofit dedicated to growing participation in the democratic process by mobilizing and empowering voters. The group works year-round to educate and register voters, engage with diverse and underrepresented communities, and protect election integrity. ### Media Contact:
