Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang defends $1,000 giveaway contest as 'perfectly legal.'
Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang insisted Sunday that his contest to provide 10 Americans $1,000 monthly for one year — which would come from campaign donations — is"perfectly legal" as campaign finance experts have expressed skepticism.
Yang added that"if I gave a million dollars to a media company or consultants or hired like a small army of canvassers, no one would blink an eye." Yang has already been paying out such"Freedom Dividends" out of his own pocket to three families — one in New Hampshire, one in Iowa and one in Florida. But the use of campaign funds to do so has come under scrutiny from campaign finance experts who say it may not be legal.
