Exclusive | Feds subpoena PAC connected to Adams-allied pastor, embattled campaign fundraiser

The feds subpoenaed a shadowy political fund connected to one of Eric Adams’ allies and to the mayor’s embattled top fundraiser, The Post has learned.

The Rev. Alfred L. Cockfield’s political action committee, Striving for a Better New York, was slapped with the subpoena in early November, sources close to the matter told The Post.

Feds with the Eastern District of New York sought financial records from the PAC, which Cockfield set up during Adams’ 2021 mayoral run, according to the sources. The search’s purpose remained unclear.

The PAC has drawn scrutiny for giving out little of the $1.3 million it raised to political activities, while generously compensating Cockfield, as detailed in a 2022 New York Times report.

Beyond the Adams-linked Cockfield, the PAC also has ties to Brianna Suggs — the mayor’s chief fundraiser whose Brooklyn home was raided by the feds in November 2023.

Cockfield didn’t return a request for comment Tuesday, nor did Suggs’ attorney.

A spokesperson for the Eastern District of New York declined to comment.
