Club for Growth pours $5M into tight House races as GOP braces for tough election
FIRST ON FOX: A top conservative group is pouring an additional $5 million into six key House races around the country as Republicans fight to hold and expand their razor-thin majority in November.
Club for Growth Action and Win It Back PAC, an affiliated fundraising group dedicated to flipping control of the Democrat-held White House and Senate, are rolling out new ads in Alaska, Arizona, California, New Mexico, Ohio and Pennsylvania on Wednesday.
They plan to flood the airwaves via satellite, streaming and mail, Fox News Digital was told, roughly nine weeks until Election Day on Nov. 5.

"The past few years, Democrats across the country have made it clear that their priorities are overspending on far-left pet projects and passing pro-criminal and anti-police legislation. After record inflation and putting criminals above law-abiding families, Democrats should expect to be held accountable on Election Day," Club for Growth Action President David McIntosh told Fox News Digital.
The 30-second ads paint the Democrats running in each of those districts as soft on crime, accusing them of being "radically pro-criminal" and being "for felons, not families."
Crime and policing is an issue that was pivotal to House Republicans’ 2022 midterm election victory.
