The NRCC’s Plan in Action
NRCC Chairman Emmer has made it clear that House Republicans’ blueprint to take back the House requires recruiting talented and diverse candidates, having a winning message and raising enough resources to get our message to voters.
Last week was a perfect example of that plan in action.
Recruitment
Politico: Republicans draft veteran candidates to reclaim House majority
- “In the first three months of the off-year, party recruiters are reporting a surge of enthusiasm from a diverse crop of prospective candidates, including women and people of color. National Republican Congressional Committee leaders have so far talked to 112 recruits in their 47 target districts. But they say they are particularly excited about an uptick in interest from those who served in the military — a trend they think will serve them well in competitive districts.”
Fundraising
Fox News: Gunning for majority, House GOP reelection arm reports large fundraising haul
- “As Republicans work toward winning back the House of Representatives majority in the 2022 midterm elections, the party’s reelection committee is off to a strong fundraising start. The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) on Thursday reported that it brought in $33.7 million in fundraising in the January-March first quarter (Q1) of this year. The figures, shared first with Fox News, include a large $19.1 million haul in March alone, which the NRCC says beats its previous off-election year record by $3.6 million.”
Winning Message
