Speaker Johnson Surpasses Record $135 Million Raised for 2026 Midterms

July 15, 2026

WASHINGTON, D.C. - 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.

"While Democrats lunge further into disarray and to the far-left, House Republicans are united, well-funded, and on offense to win the midterms. With less than four months to go, we continue to expose the contrast for America before voters this fall – a choice between Republican’s common sense and Democrat’s embrace of crazy and Communism," said Speaker Johnson. "Another record-setting fundraising quarter will help us take our message to key districts and place extreme Democrats on notice from coast to coast."

Today’s announcement builds on the Speaker’s largest fundraising quarter ever to begin the 2026 election year. This cycle, Speaker Johnson has now distributed more than $80 million to Members, campaigns, committees, and state parties, including $38 million to the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), $21 million to incumbents, and $3.9 million to challengers.

In addition to the Speaker’s record-setting direct fundraising efforts, Speaker Johnson has raised an additional $15.5 million for House Republicans through digital, mail, and Member events this cycle.
