Bernie Sanders doesn't like the DNC's joint fundraising with Hillary Clinton

Bernie Sanders' campaign wrote a letter to the Democratic National Committee on Monday arguing that the group's joint fundraising with Hillary Clinton raises "serious apparent violations."

"While the use of joint fundraising agreements has existed for some time — it is unprecedented for the DNC to allow a joint committee to be exploited to the benefit of one candidate in the midst of a contested nominating contest," Sanders' campaign manager Jeff Weaver said in a statement.

The letter claims that the Hillary Victory Fund reported receiving individual contributions of $353,400 and more, blowing past the $2,700 limit. Read the full letter here.
