House Democrats' campaign arm raises $22M in August

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), House Democrats’ campaign arm, raised $22 million in the month after President Biden dropped out of the presidential race.

“The DCCC raised an eye-popping $22.3 million in August, leaving the House Democratic campaign arm with more than $87 million on hand in the final stretch of the election,” the organization said in a statement.

The committee said it has raised more than $250 million this campaign cycle, focused on reelection Democrats and winning key swing districts to win back the House majority. In 2024, the campaign arm has brought in $129 million, per the statement, including over $1.2 million raised from online donations during the Democratic National Convention last month in Chicago when Vice President Harris was confirmed as the party’s nominee for November.

“Thanks to the leadership of Hakeem Jeffries and broad support and enthusiasm for our candidates and incumbents across the country, House Democrats are on track to reclaim the majority with less than 50 days to go until Election Day,” DCCC said in a release.
