Republicans are serious about taking back the House of Representatives in November.
In the cae of Congressman Steve Scalise, he is even putting his money where his mouth is, by donating a lot of cash to the cause.
The Daily Caller reports:
EXCLUSIVE: Steve Scalise To Donate Millions To NRCC In Effort To Win Back The House
House Minority Whip Steve Scalise has donated millions of dollars to the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) and plans on doubling his commitment in an effort to win back the House of Representatives, the Daily Caller has learned.
Scalise has given $6 million to the NRCC this cycle and told the Daily Caller that he will be doubling his commitment to $12 million. He’ll start by giving another $2 million this week.
Scalise has raised over $13 million online alone in small-dollar donations so far this cycle, and $7.8 million alone during impeachment; this is an unprecedented number and the highest amount raised by any GOP member.
The Louisiana Republican told the Daily Caller that he is “fully committed to winning the house back,” saying he has been “working very aggressively over the last year to travel around the country, to raise money through my leadership fund but also for my colleagues and we’ve already raised more than $4 and a half million dollars that’s been given directly to colleagues for their efforts to win their seats back but then directly.”
“I’ve already given $6 million dollars to the NRCC to go flip the seats we need to win the majority back.
Scalise is also serious about going after the people who abused FISA during Russiagate.

Steve Scalise says FISA violations should mean jail time: Durham should ‘literally name names’
House Minority Whip Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La. is calling for broad reforms to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) process after alleged abuses during the course of the Russia investigation.
Appearing on “America’s Newsroom” with hosts Sandra Smith and Ed Henry, Scalise said Wednesday that he has “very strong concerns” about those who abused the process being “held accountable” for their actions.
“And frankly, if people go to jail for abusing that court, I don’t think we’re going to see those [kinds] of abuses again in the future,” he added.
“But, I am concerned that the bill that’s moving through this week is not, frankly, including enough of the reforms and criminal penalties that need to be included to make sure that if somebody does abuse the FISA court they will be held accountable.”
The bottom line is that Democrats don’t deserve to keep the House.
All they have done is chase their dreams of ousting Trump.
