Former Lt. Gov. Anthony G. Brown, who borrowed $500,000 from a union during the waning weeks of his unsuccessful 2014 run for governor, has begun to chip away at that debt.
Brown, who is now running for Congress, repaid $40,000 to the Laborers Political Education Fund in $10,000 increments between March and December, according to a campaign finance report he filed this week.
The money to repay that loan and other debts came largely from loans to the campaign fund made by Brown and his wife, Karmen. Together they lent $98,584 — money that could be difficult to ever recover.
Brown is now running for the Democratic nomination in Maryland's hotly contested 4th Congressional District. Incumbent Rep. Donna Edwards is giving up the seat to run for the Senate seat left vacant by the impending retirement of longtime Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski.
