GOP Lawmaker Says Campaign ‘Mistakenly’ Paid Her Son

Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA) paid her son $3,500 from her campaign account for “consulting,” Iowa Starting Line reports.

Twenty-two days later, her son, Jonathon Miller-Meeks, made a campaign contribution of the same amount to Miller-Meeks’ campaign. 

A spokesman for the campaign called the transfer a mistake.
