He highlighted the success of the Cornyn Victory Committee (CVC), an innovative joint fundraising committee established in 2021 that has transferred an average of $435,000 to each of 36 colleagues and candidates in the last two election cycles alone.

“This $400 million-plus milestone is a testament to the dedication of our supporters to our shared values and vision for America,” the Senator stated. “As we approach the November elections, your continued support is more vital than ever as we work tirelessly to regain a Republican majority in the Senate.”

The Senator outlined key priorities for a potential Republican Senate majority, including:

  • Preventing tax increases and rebuilding economic prosperity;
  • Unleashing American energy production;
  • Restoring legislative authority and reforming regulatory overreach;
  • Implementing fiscal policies to reduce wasteful government spending;
  • Confirming conservative federal judges;
  • Securing the border and combating illegal drug trafficking;
  • And opposing the radical left’s agenda.

The Senator concluded by emphasizing the critical nature of the upcoming election and calling for continued support to “restore conservative leadership to the Senate and put our nation back on the right track.”
