A New York labor leader gave $1.1M through a chain of nonprofits to former governor of New Mexico, Bill Richardson, which were allegedly used for kickbacks to campaign staff.

"New York labor leader Dennis Rivera funneled $1.1 million of his nonprofit’s money to a “sham” charity tied to former presidential candidate and then-New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, The Post has learned.

“We don’t know where they spent it,” said Victor Marshall, the New Mexico lawyer for a former state worker in a whistleblower lawsuit that raises the issue of the mystery cash."--Isabel Vincent, the New York Post
