Considering the mountain of money we were up against, these are excellent results.
Barry Moore’s victory in Alabama was especially important given that Moore’s membership in the House Freedom Caucus became the biggest issue in the race. McCarthy went all-in against Moore, but — thanks to your support — we beat him with five smooth stones and a slingshot.
But the fight has only begun.
Kevin McCarthy is focused on beating Republicans, not Democrats, and that remains his mission.
McCarthy’s allies spent $1.65 million against Barry Moore, $2 million against Mark Harris, and $2.1 million against Brandon Gill — and more is coming against Bob Good (VA-05), Marlin Stutzman (IN-03), and every other Freedom Caucus candidate in a competitive race.
We won the fight this time because we had the better message and spent our dollars wisely, but we can’t let up!
Please make an urgent contribution to our priority candidates today.
House Freedom Fund will pay all processing fees and transfer 100% of your candidate contributions directly to their campaigns.
Thank you for being part of our team and for doing so much to support the House Freedom Caucus in the fight for America’s future.
