In Louisiana, Bill Cassidy raises mountain of cash to defend seat against MAGA Republicans

Source: Shreveport Times

Louisiana incumbent Republican U.S. Sen. Bill Cassidy continues to build a mountain of money to defend his seat in 2026 against at least two GOP opponents who question his MAGA credentials.

Cassidy's campaign announced Louisiana's senior senator will report $9 million cash on hand after raising $2.1 million more in the second quarter.

Second-quarter campaign finance reports aren't due until July 15, but Cassidy's campaign announced his haul early to flex the candidate's financial muscles.

“I’m grateful for the outpouring of support from many who want proven conservative leadership,” Cassidy said in a statement. “I am proud to have worked with President Trump to pass the One Big Beautiful Bill and will continue to deliver real results that put Louisiana First.”

Cassidy's "conservative" ratings are 55% from Conservative Review and 62% from Heritage Action.

Asking for some poor and desperate friends...
