Speaker Mike Johnson Surpasses a Record $135 Million in Fundraising for 2026 Midterms
But the bigger news is that, for this election cycle, Speaker Johnson has raised over $135 million for the 2026 midterms.
Here’s more from Johnson’s office:
Speaker Mike Johnson announced today he raised $19.1 million in the second quarter of 2026, bringing his total hard-dollar fundraising this year to over $53 million and this cycle to over $135 million. This is the most raised in an election year and at this point in a cycle by a Republican Speaker or Leader, and it does not include the hundreds of millions of additional funds raised by the Speaker’s endorsed Super PAC, the Congressional Leadership Fund.
Speaker Johnson has now surpassed over $200 million raised for House Republicans in just over two and a half years since becoming Speaker.
