Kevin McCarthy-allied super PAC builds $10.6M war chest

The super PAC and political nonprofit group aligned with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy raised a combined $21.6 million during the first six months of the year, more evidence Republican fundraising has not suffered because of the events of Jan. 6.

Congressional Leadership Fund, the super PAC, raised $11.9 million through June 30 and closed the period with a $10.6 million war chest, a 35% improvement over its previous record for cash banked during the first six months of the off-year. The balance of the $21.6 million was raised by American Action Network, a 501(c)4 organization that is permitted to engage in limited political activity but does not have to disclose its donors.
