Scoop: Rep. Bill Huizenga touts over $10 million donated to elect House Republicans

Rep. Bill Huizenga (R., Mich), a top contender to chair the House’s Financial Services Committee next Congress, has donated more than $10 million to elect House Republicans since he first won in 2010 — all while Democrats spent over $1 million dollars to defeat him in one of America’s most pivotal swing states.

Huizenga, his team told the Washington Reporter, has given almost $5 million directly to the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), has raised $4.1 million directly to Republican incumbents and candidates through his Beers with Bill series, and has given an additional $2.2 million to Republican candidates through his leadership PAC. Huizenga himself traveled to battleground districts across America with members of House leadership this cycle.

Huizenga’s campaign efforts included multiple swings in Michigan alongside Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.), Whip Tom Emmer (R., Minn.), newly-elected GOP Conference Chair Lisa McClain (R., Mich.) and Rep. Jim Jordan (R., Ohio) to campaign for incoming Rep. Tom Barrett, who flipped one of the GOP’s top priority open seats. He also traveled to swing districts with Emmer, McClain, and Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R., Mo.).

Districts Huizenga campaigned in included those of Reps. Don Bacon (R., Neb.), Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R., Iowa), and Mike Lawler (R., N.Y.) as well as those of incoming Republicans who won competitive races, including Gabe Evans and Jeff Hurd in Colorado.

These nationwide efforts came as Democrats spent tens of millions of dollars in Michigan, only for President Donald Trump to flip the state red and for Republicans to flip control of the state House, both of which Huizenga was involved in.
