Hey team, we are seeing some scary fundraising numbers from House Republican-aligned groups and super PACs.
Organizations like the Congressional Leadership Fund and the NRCC — which are laser-focused on electing Republicans and defeating candidates like Pat — have raised a combined $535 million this cycle.
That’s half a billion dollars going straight into races like ours in attempts to flip our seat and send their Republican cronies to Congress.
Colin Schmitt's campaign is being bankrolled by these far-right groups. He’s at the mercy of them opening up their wallets to support his flailing campaign.
The Congressional Leadership Fund has spent $1.4 million on Colin’s campaign so far, and Republican leaders like Kevin McCarthy have even come to fundraise to keep Pat out of Congress and flip the House.
Republicans wouldn’t be raising and spending this much if they weren’t scared of our grassroots momentum, powered by small-dollar donors, not billionaires and special corporate interests.
