Will Nicole Malliotakis Condemn Madison Cawthorn’s Allegedly Criminal Behavior And Return His Money?

Malliotakis took thousands from fellow Republican Rep. Cawthorn, who watchdog groups say may have violated insider trading laws

According to reports, multiple watchdog groups are blowing the whistle on Madison Cawthorn for appearing to “[violate] federal insider trading laws as he hyped up an alleged pump-and-dump cryptocurrency scheme.”

It’s been a long week for Nicole Malliotakis’ friend who has also been cited for illegally carrying a loaded gun into an airport. They’re just the latest of many scandals that have featured Rep. Madison Cawthorn.

But Madison Cawthorn’s antics have never bothered vulnerable Republican Nicole Malliotakis, who embraced Cawthorn’s endorsement in a desperate effort to raise money for her campaign.

New Yorkers deserve to know: 

  • Does Nicole Malliotakis support law and order, or the lawlessness of her fellow colleague and endorser Madison Cawthorn?

  • Will Nicole Malliotakis return the money and distance herself from Madison Cawthorn if he violated federal insider trading laws, or does she believe Members of Congress play by different rules?

DCCC Spokesperson Abel Iraola
“Nicole Malliotakis was so desperate to take a check for her campaign that she didn’t blink when Madison Cawthorn sent her thousands of dollars and his support. Now that her conservative colleague’s name is making the rounds for all kinds of allegedly criminal behavior, from insider trading to illegally carrying a loaded gun in an airport, will Nicole Malliotakis return the money and distance herself? Or does she believe Members of Congress play by different rules than everyone else?”
