Pro-Clinton super-PAC raises $11M in March
The biggest super-PAC supporting Hillary Clinton brought in more than $11 million in March, according to CNN.
Priorities USA Action’s latest haul brings the group’s fundraising total to $67 million and donors have committed to contribute another $49 million, super-PAC spokesman Justin Barasky told the network.
{mosads}”Thanks to our fundraising success in the coming weeks and months, we will take additional steps to aggressively contrast the dangerous extremism of Republicans like Ted Cruz and Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton’s record of raising wages, breaking barriers and protecting our country,” Barasky said.
The announcement follows Clinton’s huge victory in Tuesday’s New York primary.
Priorities USA has said it will hold off on spending in the Democratic primary and is prepared to launch the largest general election spending effort by an outside group in Democratic Party history.
So far, the super-PAC has reserved $125 million in ads: $90 million for television and $35 million in digital.
“We’re trying to do something that no one has done on the Democratic side in terms of the scale,” Guy Cecil, the head of Priorities USA Action, told The Hill in a recent interview.
