Don Bacon, Republican representative from Nebraska, was one of 11 Congress personnel whose military records were released without the veterans’ authorization. According to Bacon, someone working for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) had Bacon’s personal identifiable information. This person used that information to fraudulently obtain Bacon’s military records. The records obtained required the veteran’s signature.<\/p>\n

From Fox News:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., one of 11 lawmakers affected by the release, is calling out the Due Diligence Group (DDG) for “identity theft” and is demanding the DCCC be held accountable for their involvement.<\/p>\n

“The Democrat organization paid for by the Democratic campaign, a congressional committee, they were paid $110,000 to do this, but they used our Social Security numbers and other personal identification information to look like it was us making this request. So the Air Force was deceived,” Rep. Bacon said on “America’s Newsroom” Thursday.<\/p>\n

Bacon argued that the DCCC used information provided by DDG’s “identity theft” to “exploit” candidates during the 2022 campaign cycle.<\/p>\n

The Air Force confirmed to Fox News that an internal audit had “determined there was an unauthorized release of military duty information on 11 individuals” from October 2021 through October 2022. In a letter to Bacon, first reported by Politico, the Air Force said the records were “inappropriately requested” in November 2021 by a researcher named Abraham Payton, who formerly worked with American Bridge 21st Century, a liberal super PAC, on the false basis of “employment and benefits.”<\/p>\n

The Air Force, which told Fox News in a statement that “[t]here was no evidence of political motivation or malicious intent on the part of any employee,” said the record branch released Bacon’s personal identifiable information to the man without any authorization, and the person appeared to already be in possession of the congressman’s Social Security number when he requested the information. The employee did not follow proper procedures which required Bacon’s signature in order to release the information.<\/p>\n

Bacon said while 30 years of his records had “nothing to hide,” he noted others suffered more due to the violation like former congressional candidate Jennifer-Ruth Green, who had information released about her sexual assault during her military service.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
