“I am proud of my growing support from thousands of grassroots patriots in the North Country who have donated to my campaign and I’m excited to have raised more than 10 million dollars over the past year for my re-election campaign and for our critical effort to flip the House and finally retire Nancy Pelosi,” Stefanik said in the release.
“Americans are watching Joe Biden and House Democrats continue to implode, and conservatives are becoming more fired up for this November’s election,” the House Republican Conference chairwoman continued.
“As the historic 2022 Red Wave builds and more Democrats run for the hills, I will continue to support strong, American First candidates as we work to Fire Nancy Pelosi once and for all and SAVE AMERICA!” she said.
Stefanik is the latest Republican across the U.S. to demolish fundraising records in her congressional race.
