Crowdfunding website GoFundMe is banning people from raising money to fund travel expenses for political events following riots at the U.S. Capitol.

The platform is tightening restrictions after pro-Trump protesters reportedly used GoFundMe to raise money for transportation ahead of the violent protests at the U.S. Capitol last week, the company confirmed to Fox News Tuesday.

"Due to the violence, GoFundMe has removed numerous fundraisers intended to raise money for travel expenses. GoFundMe will remove fundraisers for travel expenses to a future political event where there's risk of violence by the attendees," a spokesperson for GoFundMe told Fox News in a statement.

"We continue to enforce our terms of service and do not tolerate fundraisers supporting hate, violence, harassment, or spreading misinformation about the 2020 election," the statement continued.

GoFundMe says it removed several fundraiser attempts that appeared to challenge the legitimacy of 2020 election results in the months leading up to the deadly riots at the Capitol on Jan. 6. The company says it will continue to remove fundraisers that "attempt to spread misinformation about the election, promote conspiracy theories and contribute to or participate in attacks on US democracy."
