NEW YORK, Dec. 3 (UPI) -- Hillary Clinton supporters have been invited to contribute more as she seeks to retire her presidential campaign debt, aides say.

Clinton's campaign had nearly $7.5 million in debts to consultants and vendors at the end of October, the latest Federal Election Commission report says.

Clinton, who forgave $13.2 million in personal loans to her presidential campaign, has said she wants to repay her campaign debts, USA Today reported.

The New York senator's fundraising will be handled by her campaign committee once she is confirmed as the next secretary of state.
