Kevin McCarthy Tries to Close GOP’s Fundraising Gap

“Almost exactly a year after a small group of GOP lawmakers joined Democrats to remove Kevin McCarthy from the speakership, the California Republican is divvying out $14 million to help GOP candidates across the board,” NOTUS reports.

“The money is coming at a time when Republicans are trailing Democrats in fundraising as Election Day nears.”

Said McCarthy: “It’s a bigger hole than I thought would happen, so I want to help fill that hole. I think it’s a better opportunity to win seats this cycle than the last two, and we haven’t lost in a long time. I’ve got a lot invested in the people that I recruited. I want to help them be able to maintain; I think we got to go be more on offense. We got a great opportunity.”
