Cassidy and Allies Have $26M War Chest as Leader Thune Headlines High-Dollar Fundraiser

Baton Rouge, LA — U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. (R-LA), announced today that his campaign has $11 million cash on hand at the close of Q4. Meanwhile, public reports indicate that pro-Cassidy forces will be able to deploy a combined $26 million in the coming months. The single largest spend supporting a Louisiana party primary candidate EVER.

The strong fundraising report comes the same day Leader John Thune is set to visit Baton Rouge to headline a high-dollar fundraising event for Senator Cassidy that has raised over $600K and counting.

With strong numbers, a massive war chest and weakened opponents, Senator Cassidy remains the clear frontrunner in the 2026 Senate race. Leader John Thune’s visit further underscores the growing local and national confidence behind Cassidy’s re-election.

“Every day I am privileged to work with President Trump and fellow Republicans to make Louisiana and the United States better for everyone,” said Dr. Cassidy. “People in Louisiana recognize this and are generously supporting my re-election. Together, we will succeed.”

Senator Bill Cassidy has raised $17.3 million cycle to date, including $1.65 million across all entities to close out the year, reflecting massive enthusiasm and energy.

Cassidy is endorsed by the National Republican Senate Committee (NRSC), Leader Thune and has received support from Senate Republican leadership and other Republican senators, reflecting confidence in his record and ability to win.
