Roger Williams, a two-term congressman from the Dallas suburbs and longtime GOP fundraiser, will be the new chair of the House Conservatives Fund, a federal political action committee that’s been practically dormant for several cycles. The 65-year-old Williams, who cut his political teeth as a fundraiser for George W. Bush’s gubernatorial and presidential runs, says he plans to be a major fundraising force in the 2016 House races.

Williams will inherit the post from Republican congressman Bill Flores, who led the HCF through an underwhelming 2014 cycle. The PAC raised just over $820,000 for 2014. By comparison, the National Republican Congressional Committee raised more than $150 million in the same cycle. Williams says he wants to raise at least a million dollars by the end of 2015.
