Obama’s Hopefund PAC Gives $50,000 To Dem Committees

It’s not as active as it once was, but the leadership PAC Barack Obama formed in 2005 donated $50,000 to Democratic committees in the first six months of this year.

Hopefund Inc., which a March document said was still sponsored by the president, gave $15,000 apiece to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.

Those are the campaign organizations that are working in the 2010 election to protect the party majorities that Obama needs to enact his legislative programs.
