The NRCC raised less than $4 million in August — a little more than half of what the DCCC brought in.
House Democrats’ campaign arm raised $7.1 million in what was their lowest month of 2025 so far. The committee ended the month with $41.1 million in the bank.
The NRCC ended August with $36.4 million in cash on hand, slightly less than it had banked at the end of July.
August is typically a hard fundraising month. Congress is often in recess and members and donors are on vacation.
But this is a pretty sizable discrepancy, especially after Republicans pushed through their biggest legislative achievement of the year, passing the One Big Beautiful Bill. The NRCC’s next lowest month of 2025 was January, and even then, they raised $5.9 million.
The Senate. The DSCC also outraised its Republican counterpart, bringing in $5.6 million in August. The NRSC raised $4.7 million.
Senate Democrats have nearly $4 million more in cash on hand than the NRSC, with $12.2 million. But the DSCC has $500,000 in unretired campaign debt and the NRSC has none.
National Committees. The DNC raised $11 million in August, nearly keeping fundraising pace with the RNC’s $11.1 million.
But the cash-on-hand disparity here is still jarring. The RNC has $83.9 million to the DNC’s $14.9 million.
