McCarthy received $2,700 directly and an additional $11,000 went to Protect the House, a joint fundraising committee of which both McCarthy and the NRCC were beneficiaries, according to the news source.

“These contributions were made ahead of events sponsored by Protect the House, a joint fundraising committee that McCarthy helped form last cycle," McCarthy spokesman Matt Spark told The Hill in a statement.

"The deception documented in today's indictment has no place in our country and as a result, McCarthy plans to donate amounts received to a local charity.”

A local charity has not yet been named.
