Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff's Senate campaign is sitting on more cash than any presidential candidate. The campaign reported having about $29,800,864 in cash on hand at the end of Q2. The haul can in part be attributed to a massive fundraising push by his campaign after the House of Representatives censured him. Schiff's campaign also has millions more cash on hand than any other presidential candidate. The money that Schiff's Senate campaign is sitting on will become increasingly useful in the coming months as he runs a competitive campaign against Rep. Katie Porter and longtime Rep. Barbara Lee to replace outgoing Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

☆ The GOP push to censure Adam Schiff may only help his Senate campaign in California

But with Schiff running for Senate as a #Resistance hero, the censure is only likely to help him. His Senate campaign fundraised heavily on it, and he thanked his GOP colleagues in a floor speech. In a floor speech earlier on Wednesday, Schiff thanked his Republican colleagues for bringing the censure resolution, saying he stood "proudly" before them. The censure resolution alleges that Schiff "misled the American people and brought disrepute upon the House of Representatives" for his handling of the Trump-Russia investigation. Schiff has also led Porter in recent fundraising, though the congresswoman has amassed a large war chest from her House campaign account.

Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Thursday she is backing Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff in California's Senate race — if Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein decides not to run for re-election. But that hasn't stopped other Democrats, including Schiff and Rep. Katie Porter, from jumping into the race. Schiff has been a staunch Pelosi ally, and the former speaker tapped him to lead the team managing former President Donald Trump's first impeachment. And Schiff and Porter may not be the only House members who decide to run for Senate. Schiff responded to the endorsement, writing on Twitter that Pelosi "has been a friend and mentor throughout my time in Congress."

Former House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi endorsed fellow California Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff on Thursday in the already-competitive 2024 Senate race for the seat currently held by Dianne Feinstein. The endorsement comes one week after Schiff, the former chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, launched his bid for Feinstein's coveted Senate seat. That's why I'm running for the U.S. Senate," Schiff said in a campaign-launch video. Schiff was not the first Democrat to jump into the race for Feinstein's seat. Democratic Rep. Katie Porter announced Jan. 10 that she will run for Senate in California, snagging the endorsement of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass.

U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) speaks at a press conference on committee assignments for the 118th U.S. Congress, at the U.S. Capitol Building on January 25, 2023 in Washington, DC. Rep. Adam Schiff, the California Democrat who led an impeachment effort against former President Donald Trump, launched a bid for the high-profile Senate seat currently held by Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein. "I'm going to the U.S. Senate to fight for working people, not the rich or corporations who don't need yet another voice in Congress," Schiff said in a press release Thursday unveiling his 2024 Senate bid. Today's Republican Party is gutting the middle class, threatening our democracy," Schiff said in a video accompanying his announcement. Schiff's Senate bid follows Democratic Rep. Katie Porter's announcement that she will campaign for Feinstein's seat.
