The National Republican Congressional Committee reported a record-breaking haul for the month of May, outpacing its Democratic counterpart for the first time this year as GOP groups continue to benefit from former President Donald Trump’s conviction in New York. 

The NRCC raised $12.6 million last month, marking the most money the committee has raised in the month of May during an election year. The record comes after the NRCC raised more than $1 million from small-dollar donors in the days following Trump’s guilty verdict in his hush-money trial in New York last month.
