Florida Attorney-General James Uthmeier has opened an investigation unto Democrat Politicians of the Democratic Socialists of America faction unto their foreign funding. In a public statement the Attorney-General said that the DSA is being investigated over suspected funding of tens of thousands of Dollars by China and Cuba for foreign trips.

In October 2025, the DSA travelled to Cuba on official trip with up to 40 of its delegates led by its co-chairs Ashik Siddique and Megan Romer. The trip was facilitated through ICAP, the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the Peoples.

In September of the same year, the DSA also conducted another trip to China which included Anlin Wang and Dee Knight. The trip coincided with China’s coemorative events marking the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.

The investigative subpoena was issued under Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act and the state’s laws governing the solicitation of funds. The law prohibits organisations from “foreign sources of concern.” That category includes the governments of China and Cuba, as well as their officials, political parties, related entities. The Attorney General is examining whether the DSA accepted such support in connection with its Cuba and China trips and whether its fundraising from Florida donors was fully transparent.
