Investivoq AI Summary
Lawmakers seek investigation: House and Senate Democratic ranking members Bobby Scott, Jamie Raskin and Bernie Sanders asked the Justice Department and FBI to investigate reports that unverifiable or stolen identities may have been used to submit public comments on a Labor Department rule.
Labor Department review requested: Scott and Sanders also urged the Labor Department’s acting secretary and inspector general to investigate. The release says Bloomberg reported nearly 12,000 supportive comments on a proposed 401(k) rule showed signs of being manufactured, while some people denied submitting them.
Rule at issue: The comments concerned a proposal that would create a safe harbor for 401(k) plans to invest in “alternative assets,” including private equity and cryptocurrency. The lawmakers said the reported irregularities raise questions about the integrity of the public comment process.
