House Majority PAC Plans $272 Million Ad Campaign Targeting Republican Seats Ahead of Midterms

The House Majority PAC, a key outside group supporting Democrats, plans to spend $272 million on television and digital ads targeting mostly Republican-held seats ahead of the November midterm elections. This strategy focuses on competitive districts from Miami to Philadelphia, aiming to capitalize on President Trump's declining approval ratings and voter concerns about the economy. While the super PAC cannot coordinate with Democratic campaigns, both are expected to target about three dozen districts. The Republican-aligned Congressional Leadership Fund has not yet announced its ad plans as Republicans seek to maintain a narrow House majority.
