A company that raises money for veterans in southwestern Connecticut is coming under fire as local and federal officials announce plans to investigate them for fraud.
Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) says the company, Veterans Support Organization, uses solicitors who claim to be volunteers when in fact they get kickbacks based on the amount of cash they raise.
No one from the Veterans Support Organization was available for comment.
