Florida AG Subpoenas DSA Over Cuba, China Funding Probe After 2026 Election Gains

Summary
James Uthmeier’s office issued an investigative subpoena Tuesday seeking records on whether the Democratic Socialists of America accepted contributions from “foreign sources of concern,” including Cuba and China.
The subpoena focuses on recent DSA delegations to China and Cuba, where members met Cuban government officials, as Florida examines possible violations of the state’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act.
Uthmeier did not cite specific criminal allegations or identify any individuals accused of wrongdoing, framing the move as an effort to block foreign adversaries from influencing Florida through fundraising.
The probe follows several DSA-backed candidates’ wins in last week’s elections and adds scrutiny to an organization that has praised Cuba’s government and pushed to end the U.S. embargo.
