Cheyenne Hunt watched Rep. Eric Swalwell use campaign funds for legal fees after sexual assault allegations chased him out of Congress. She decided to do something to not watch Graham Platner do the same.
Hunt, a prominent activist and lawyer, launched her organization Reckoning Action in response to the accusations against Swalwell with the goal of ending misogyny in the workplace. After Swalwell, she knew she “had to get a little bit scrappier about how we do this,” Hunt told NOTUS in an interview.
Ultimately, her organization decided to text Platner’s donors directly and teach them how they can get refunds from his campaign.
