Complaint alleges campaign finance violation by Rep. Ilhan Omar

A conservative group filed a complaint Wednesday alleging that U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar illegally used campaign funds to pay travel expenses for the consultant whose wife has accused him of an affair with the Minnesota Democrat.

The National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) in Falls Church, Va., asserted in a complaint to the Federal Election Commission that Omar's campaign paid Tim Mynett's E Street Group thousands of dollars for travel while he and Omar were in a relationship.
