BREAKING: DCCC outraises NRCC

House Republicans are having a terrible week...

First – Public Policy Polling found that, “after a little more than 3 months in charge House Republicans have fallen so far out of favor with the American public that it's entirely possible Democrats could take control of the House back next year.”

Now – A troubling development for the House Republicans -- the new Majority that should have momentum and excitement on their side -- the NRCC was outraised by the DCCC and both committees now have equal debt levels.

Then – On Friday the House will vote on Republicans’ controversial budget that would end Medicare, a move independent political analyst Charlie Cook calls “little short of suicidal.”

DCCC Chairman Steve Israel:

“Republicans’ radical agenda to end Medicare and play chicken with a government shutdown, while protecting taxpayer giveaways for Big Oil, is turning off independent voters and energizing our Democratic supporters.  As a result, the DCCC is back on sound financial footing and aggressively focused on holding Republicans accountable for their radical agenda.”
