NEW YORK (AP) — State authorities in New Jersey have subpoenaed a host of financial records from the committee that organized President Donald Trump's inauguration.
The committee said Friday it is in contact with the New Jersey Attorney General's Office regarding a civil inquiry into the committee.
The subpoena is the second such request the inaugural committee has received in as many weeks as scrutiny mounts over how it raised and spent $107 million on inaugural events.
The committee also received a sweeping request for documents issued by federal prosecutors in New York investigating whether foreign nationals illegally contributed to the inauguration.
The Associated Press obtained a copy of the New Jersey subpoena. It seeks contracts, ledgers and a host of other financial records.
It also seeks documents related to any benefits donors received.
