The National Republican Congressional Committee reported last week that it shattered the record for its largest-ever off-election-year monthly haul by $3.6 million.
The NRCC raised $19.1 million in March and $33.7 million for the first quarter of 2021, according to a news release.
The House campaign arm of the GOP further stated it ended the quarter “with $29.7M cash on hand which is a 57% increase over the same point last cycle.”
The NRCC also said it is debt-free and had an average grassroots donation of $32.70.
“Republican voters are motivated to fire Nancy Pelosi, stop Democrats’ socialist agenda and take back the House,” NRCC spokesman Michael McAdams said in a statement.
