House Republicans have hit record-breaking fundraising levels and are outpacing Democrats for the 2026 midterm cycle, as the GOP continues to gain momentum heading into November.
The National Republican Congressional Committee raised $47.1 million in the first three months of this year, which set an all-time first-quarter record.
GOP Rep. Richard Hudson of North Carolina, who serves as NRCC chairman, added that the committee posted its strongest March in history, with $28.1 million, CBS Newsreported.
It now has $78.2 million cash on hand and a total of $164.4 million for the whole cycle.
“This is the best first quarter we’ve ever had,” Hudson proclaimed. “Republican donors are investing. They understand that the House majority is a firewall against Democrat overreach.”
Astatementon the NRCC website said the fundraising success “is part of the continuation of a cycle-long trend that’s only gaining steam: NRCC Patriots have now outraised DCCC Frontliners on average for five straight quarters, while the NRCC outraised the DCCC in the first year of an election cycle for the first time in a decade.”
Hudson was quoted in the statement as saying, “This historic fundraising quarter proves House Republicans have a tremendous amount of enthusiasm behind our agenda to lower costs and keep Americans safe.
“House Republicans are united, battle-tested, and building the financial firepower to protect our majority and take the fight directly to Democrats’ extreme agenda.”
House Republicans currently hold a razor-thin majority of 217-214, following therecent resignationof Democratic Reps. Eric Swalwell and Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, from California and Florida, respectively.
“If you look at the map of the entire Congress, 435 seats, there’s only somewhere between 30-40 seats that are up for grabs,” Hudson told CBS News. “The rest of the seats are safe seats. And so the map has evolved and gotten smaller and smaller as Republicans and Democrats have gotten more sophisticated. “
