The records show his last payment was made on March 31, 2021.

In July, Moore won the Democratic primary against fellow Democrat Tom Perez.

WMAR-2 News reached out to Moore's campaign office for a statement and they said the bill has been paid "out of an abundance of caution."

The Moore’s have paid the current balance out of an abundance of caution while they review the accuracy of the charges.
