Home > Committee to Re-elect the President

The Committee to Re-elect the President, also known as CRP or CREEP, was a Nixon White House fund-raising organization headed by John N. Mitchell, the former Attorney General. G. Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt were members of CREEP who planned the details of the Watergate break-in. CREEP funds, to the tune of 500,000 U.S. dollars, were used to pay off the five Watergate burglars after their indictment in September 1972. The link of the break-in back to the President's campaign fund-raising committee turned the burglary into an explosive political scandal. The burglars, as well as Liddy, Hunt, and Mitchell, went to prison over the break-in and their efforts to cover it up, along with other members of the Nixon Administration.
