Tuesday 13 September 2022 07:55 PM PA Senate candidate John Fetterman failed to disclose owning eight properties trends now
A watchdog group is filing a complaint asking the Senate Ethics Committee to investigate why Pennsylvania Democrat John Fetterman allegedly failed to disclose eight real estate assets on his most recent personal financial disclosure.
The total value of the properties he reportedly left of his disclosure form was $108,800. All eight of the properties were in Braddock, Pa.- Fetterman's hometown where he served as mayor. His name is listed as owner on all of them on the Allegheny County website. Many of the properties appeared to be empty lots worth between $10,000 and $20,000, one was a building structure worth over $40,000.
Fetterman did not list a single real estate asset on his most recent July 29 disclosure. His team could not be reached for comment on the matter.
The Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) wrote a letter, obtained by DailyMail.com, to Ethics Committee Chairman Sen. Chris Coons, D-De., and Vice Chairman James Lankford, R-Okla., asking them to 'immediately investigate' whether Fetterman violated the law by withholding the assets from his disclosure form.
Federal law and Senate ethics rules require Senate candidates to file a financial disclosure statement that provides a 'full and complete' statement of their assets, debts, and income, as well as any position held. Candidates are required to report any property with a 'fair market value' of $1,000 or more.
