Why it matters: February fundraising numbers aren't predictive of who will win elections, but they do provide an early look at who is motivating their base.

  • The DCCC raised $11.1 million, compared to the National Republican Campaign Committee's $9.2 million.
  • In the Senate, the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee raised $7.8 million and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee raked in $6.8 million, according to FEC reports filed on Thursday.


  • Between the lines: The NRCC closed the gap with the DCCC from January, when it raised just under $6 million and its rivals pulled in $9.2 million.

  • The NRCC surged past its February 2023 numbers, when it raised $6.6 million.


  • What they're saying: "The American people are angry and fed up with House Republicans' crusade to enact the largest cut to Medicaid in history and pledging fealty to Elon Musk's ongoing effort to dismantle Social Security and gut the VA," DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene (D-Wash.) said.

    Get a plan, organize, and f*cking do something. Bragging about the money you got is a nothing-burger unless you act like a damn leader. F*cking do something already... we're dying out here!
