Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert appears to have used campaign funds to pay for a trip to see MAGA rock star Kid Rock, whom she was previously rumored to be dating. Information from the Federal Election Commission, which monitors campaign spending made by members of Congress, showed payments made for a hotel in Arlington, Texas, and event tickets in May this year.

Boebert attended the Rock N Rodeo on May 16, an event as part of the Professional Bull Riding Championship World Finals at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, which was hosted by Rock. The 38-year-old even reposted a photo of herself alongside the American Bad Ass singer at the event.

FEC data showed that three days later, Boebert’s campaign paid $2,455.83 to “Live by Loews,” a hotel in Arlington, as well as $925 worth of “Event Tickets” to the AT&T Stadium.

The Federal Election Campaign Act FECA prohibits political candidates from using campaign funds for personal use. The Independent has reached out to representatives for Boebert and the House Oversight Committee for comment.
