In the aftermath of the Harvey Weinstein exposé, House Democrats' campaign arm promised to give every penny the disgraced movie mogul donated to the group — over $23,000 — to a women’s charity. A women's charity has confirmed that it received the donation. The reports submitted to the FEC by the party showed a refund to the movie mogul of $23,225. A senior DCCC official denied that the money went back to Weinstein, saying the check was in fact written for the women’s group. The official blamed a “reporting error” for the confusion and began updating the FEC reports following Fox News' questions to reflect that no money was refunded to Weinstein.
