Nearly every online transaction requires a customer verification value (CVV) as a form of cardholder verification. This simple requirement is standard practice across the e-commerce industry to reduce fraud and prevent unlawful foreign transactions.
Shockingly, Democrat online fundraising platform ActBlue, which raises billions of dollars for progressive candidates and woke causes, does not require a CVV number as a condition of making a donation.
In response, U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) introduced legislation to ensure political organizations receiving online contributions require a CVV number.
U.S. Senators Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Deb Fischer (R-NE), and Josh Hawley (R-MO) are cosponsors of the legislation.
