Elizabeth Warren says she won't stop rejecting PAC money or avoiding closed-door, high-dollar fundraisers if she becomes the Democratic party’s nominee.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a Democratic presidential candidate who recently proved herself as a top fundraiser in the 2020 race, said this week she will not stop rejecting PAC money or avoiding closed-door, high-dollar fundraisers beyond the Democratic primary and into the general election if she becomes the party’s nominee.
The move could be harmful to down-ballot Democrats who need a nominee at the top of the ticket that can also be a fundraising powerhouse to retake the Senate, hold their majority in the House, and capture other state and local level seats, Rufus Gifford, former President Barack Obama’s finance director for his 2012 re-election campaign suggested on Twitter.
In total, the two entities combined have raised more than $308 million so far this year, an RNC official told ABC News. "I’m not asking our state parties or our national party to unilaterally disarm," Warren said to reporters on Wednesday."I’m gonna help them raise money. In 2018, I gave away or helped raise about $11 million dollars for state parties and other candidates around the country"
"She currently attends events to raise money for the Democratic National Committee, state and local parties, and Democratic candidates,” the statement said.
