The PAC started by gun activist David Hogg , whose stated mission is "electing young progressives," instead burned through $1.4 million — representing nearly half the money raised — on travel, political consultants, and legal fees in 2023.
Hogg and his partner, Kevin Lata, raised more than $3 million in the first year of the PAC's existence from a wide array of donors with a goal of electing more "youthful, audacious, and charismatic trailblazers." However, according to Breitbart, disbursements went out to just four candidates, including one, Rep. Maxwell Frost, for whom Lata was campaign manager.
Meanwhile, Hogg paid himself $40,000 while Lata's take was $50,000 for a few months' work in 2023; the PAC launched late summer, according to the report.
