California Democratic Representative Maxine Waters is in hot water after it was revealed that she paid her daughter over $80,000 in campaign funds throughout the last fiscal year, which ended on September 30.

According to financial disclosure records reviewed by DailyMail.com, the House Financial Services Committee chairwoman paid her daughter, Karen Waters, $81,650 in campaign funds.

The whole was paid in 12 installments from October 23, 2020, through June 17, 2021.

Over $212,600 in payments were broken down into 26 entries, like "slate mailer management" fees, and 'GOTV' - the acronym for a campaign's "get out the vote" efforts.

FOX News previously reported that Waters paid Karen $74,000 for this year thus far, up until September.

The revelation comes 17 years after the Los Angeles Times first announced that Waters paid her family more than $1 million for their campaign efforts, and now the Democratic representative is facing renewed calls of nepotism.

According to FOX, waters' daughter, Karen, had been working on her campaigns for decades and has been paid more than $1.1 million for her work since 2003, with $250,000 earned in only the 2020 election cycle.

Waters' son Edward Jr shared in the slate mail proceeds and occasionally worked as a consultant to campaigns Waters supported.

The Democratic representative from California maintained the payments to the Times back then, stating: "They do their business and I do mine."

One Twitter user, Paul Young, even called for her resignation, and Lt. Steven Rogers announced: "This is how Dem/Socialists work. They take care of their own while people they represent lose jobs, pay high taxes and in many cases go homeless."

Federal regulations do not prevent candidates or members of Congress from hiring members of their family for a campaign.

According to the New York Post under Federal Election Commission regulations, salary payments to a candidates' family member unless the person is 'providing bona fide services to the campaign' are prohibited.
