Payments From Stacey Abrams’ Georgia Nonprofit To Friend’s Law Firm Under Scrutiny
Story by Leslie Bolden • 5h

Former Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams is facing renewed questions regarding her financial history, as recent tax filings reveal her voting rights advocacy group, Fair Fight Action, paid over $20 million to a law firm founded by her close friend and former campaign chair, Allegra Lawrence-Hardy.
 
Between 2019 and 2023, Fair Fight Action reportedly paid approximately $20.2 million to Lawrence & Bundy for unspecified "legal services."
 

Allegra Lawrence-Hardy, who chaired both of Abrams' unsuccessful gubernatorial campaigns in 2018 and 2022, established and worked for the firm until her departure in February. This information, initially reported by RealClearInvestigations, has raised eyebrows given Fair Fight Action’s governing documents, which state the organization "will not be operated for the pecuniary gain or profit of any individual."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Like Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits sang:
