Mass shootings propel the House Democratic campaign arm to raise $41 million last quarter

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) raised $40.7 million in the last three months – and edged ahead of Republicans in June amid a fundraising haul following a series of mass shootings. The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) brought in $16.5 million last month compared to the DCCC’s $17 million. Democrats said that last quarter’s figures were the largest ever in the second quarter of an election year. Even with the edge over Republicans in quarter two of Fiscal Year 2022, experts are still predicting a Democratic bloodbath in the midterm elections that many feel could see the Senate and House flip back to red. In attempts to try and avoid this, Democrats are using the recent mass shootings and the Supreme Court overturn of Roe v. Wade to mobilize voters who want more gun reform and abortion protections. ‘Democrats continue to prove they are fighting for the people while Republicans consume themselves with dangerous extremism that puts lives at risk,’ Representative Sean Patrick Maloney, the DCCC chair, told Fox News in a statement. The New York Democrat said ‘voters are angry, energized, and ready to rally behind Democrats as we fight against the extremist MAGA agenda in this consequential election.’ The DCCC’s only goal is to get Democrats elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. An example of how Democrats are pushing ahead of Republicans through fundraising efforts is in Georgia, where incumbent Senator Raphael Warnock raised $17.2 million from April-June compared to his Republican rival Herschel Walker, who brought in $6.2 million in the same time frame. The Georgia primary elections in May led to a runoff election in late June where Warnock and Walker won their respective elections by landslides. The two will go head-to-head in November. Warnock has $22 cash on hand while Walker, who is backed by Donald Trump, has just $7 million. Democrats claim that their massive haul in June was proof that ‘donors acted swiftly to reject’ GOP opposition to gun reform and the overturn of Roe v. Wade. The DCCC said it’s a protest of what they called ‘divisive and cruel politics House Republicans are selling.’ In May there were two mass shootings in the matter of 10 days. The first at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York that killed 10 and injured three and another at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas that killed 19 kids, two teachers and injured 17 others. Both shooters were 18-years-old. This led to the bipartisan passage of the largest gun reform bill since the 1990s. But Democrats claim more work needs done, including a ban on assault weapons and high capacity magazines.
