White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt’s old congressional campaign committee, Karoline for Congress, remains deep in debt to a host of companies and individuals, according to a new disclosure filed Friday afternoon with the Federal Election Commission.

During the final three months of 2025, Leavitt’s committee made no progress paying down the more than $326,000 it still owes creditors — debt that’s lingered since Rep. Chris Pappas defeated Leavitt in her 2022 bid to represent New Hampshire’s 1st Congressional District.

The committee reported no cash on hand entering this year.
