NRCC moves Cuellar House seat to list of targets after criminal indictment

The main campaign arm for House Republicans is adding Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) to its list of targets for the 2024 cycle after initially viewing his seat as likely Democratic.

The National Republican Congressional Committee expanded its list of targets a month after Cuellar was indicted on federal bribery charges. The indictment has put Cuellar in the hot seat among Republicans, who now consider him a prime target to flip his seat and expand their slim majority next year.
