Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is indeed investigating ActBlue. The investigation began in December 2023 to determine whether ActBlue’s operations comply with all applicable laws. This includes examining allegations that ActBlue’s platform might enable fraudulent activities.
One significant focus of the investigation is ActBlue’s previous lack of requirement for donors to provide CVV codes when making credit card donations. ActBlue has since updated its requirements to include CVV codes, which is a critical change to help prevent fraudulent donations.
