Indicted SPLC chief faces House grilling over alleged secret payments to KKK members
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) interim CEO Bryan Fair is set to testify before the House Judiciary Committee regarding allegations the nonprofit secretly paid extremist groups like the Ku Klux Klan using donor funds. Federal prosecutors indicted the SPLC in April for financial crimes, including concealing payments to extremist members, while the organization denied wrongdoing and claimed the charges are politically motivated.
