Fancelli is a widely known Republican donor. Before the Capitol Riot began, she was a significant donor to right-wing groups organizing the events.
The donation was made on June 23, according to the financial records.

The Moms For Liberty PAC has many chapters across the U.S., and they’ve focused their advocacy efforts on “Parent’s Rights,” mostly fighting LGBT education and awareness in the classroom.
“Moms for Liberty welcomes all that have a desire to stand up for parental rights at all levels of government,” their mission statement reads.
“Our founders are Tiffany and Tina, moms on a mission to stoke the fires of liberty. As former school board members, they witnessed how short-sighted and destructive policies directly hurt children and families,” the statement continued. “Now, they are using their first-hand knowledge and experience to unite parents who are ready to fight those that stand in the way of liberty.”
