WASHINGTON -- Rep. Tom MacArthur and the Republican Party weren't the only beneficiaries of the fundraiser President Donald Trump hosted at his Bedminster golf club last month.

Trump's golf club was paid $15,221 for rent and food.

MacArthur's joint fundraising committee reported $776,350 in contributions from the event, according to documents filed with the Federal Election Commission. The committee spent $59,043, including the money to the golf club, the records show.

Trump has retained ownership of his businesses though he turned over control to his sons. The former head of the Office of Government Ethics, Walter M. Shaub Jr., said that the arrangement "does not comport with the tradition of our presidents over the past 40 years."

MacArthur (R-3rd Dist.) played a major role in securing passage of House Republican health care legislation, and the congressman and fellow Republicans joined Trump at the White House to celebrate the bill's passage.

Trump later called the House GOP bill "mean."

The Congressional Budget Office said the bill would leave 23 million more Americans without health care than under the Affordable Care Act it would replace, and prevent some with pre-existing conditions from getting coverage.

The legislation also would cut spending on Medicaid, the federal-state health care program for the poor, disabled and elderly, by $834 billion over 10 years. Those reductions would fund tax cuts for corporations and wealthy Americans.

MacArthur set up a joint fundraising committee for the event, allowing contributions in excess of the maximum $5,400 he could take in for his own campaign. Money in excess of that amount was earmarked for state and federal Republican committees.

Tina Carolan of Mendham, listed as retired, donated $100,000 to the joint fundraising committee. She supported Trump's 2016 presidential run.

Another 2016 Trump financial backer, Douglas Kimmelman of Energy Capital Partners, contributed $25,000. Kimmelman, of Bernardsville, gave $100,000 to a pro-Trump super political action committee last year, as well as $10,000 to the super PAC supporting Gov. Chris Christie's presidential campaign.

Laura Overdeck of Short Hills, who contributed to both Christie's presidential campaign and his aligned super PAC, gave $25,000 to the MacArthur fundraiser, as did another Christie backer, corporate executive Jim Brennan of Moorestown.

State Republican Chairman Samuel Raia gave $5,400 and long-time Christie adviser Bill Palatucci contributed $2,700. Palatucci lost his position as general counsel to the Trump transition team when Christie was replaced as as chairman after the election.

The political action committee of Operating Engineers Local 825 contributed $25,000, and the New Jersey State Laborers PAC gave $20,000.

The fundraising committee reported a bank account balance of $584,806 at the end of June. None of that money yet had been transferred to MacArthur's campaign account, FEC filings show.
