The first quarter financial reports for Congress are in and U.S. Sen. Cynthia Lummis is seeing the green.
Lummis now has more than $1.5 million cash-on-hand heading into the 2026 election season between her main campaign committee and Steer political action committee.
No one has announced that they plan to challenge Lummis. If someone does, they’ll likely need a significant war chest to have a chance at taking on the longtime Wyoming lawmaker.
Lummis raised $330,000 in the first quarter of the year. In addition, her Steer PAC raised nearly $90,000 during the first quarter.
“We are pleased to be in a strong position after the first quarter of 2025,” said Lummis Campaign Spokesman Joe Jackson in a statement shared first with Cowboy State Daily. “This support ensures that we will have the necessary resources to get Senator Lummis’ Wyoming First record out across the state.”
Who’s Giving
All of this came in the midst of President Donald Trump endorsing Lummis for reelection late last month. After Trump’s endorsement, Lummis received $114,145 over the span of the last four days of the first quarter, which ended March 31.
“The people of Wyoming sent her to the Senate to stand firm with President Trump for conservative values – and that’s exactly what she will continue to do, without apology or compromise,” Jackson said.
A significant amount of Lummis’ donations came from other political action committees. Some of the corporations and groups giving to Lummis included Comcast, Walmart, AT&T, Toyota, American Express, Thrivent Financial, Nuclear Energy Institute, American Trucking Associations.
Financier and former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci and his wife gave a combined $6,729 to her campaign. Zach Bradford, the CEO of bitcoin mining company CleanSpark, gave $3,300.
Lummis’ Steer PAC has also made numerous donations to other Senate incumbents up for re-election in 2026, including Sens. Jim Risch, R-Idaho, Roger Marshall, R-Kansas, Pete Ricketts, R-Nebraska, Steve Daines, R-Montana and Tom Cotton, R-Arkansas. It also gave $5,000 to the PAC of Kentucky Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell, the longtime former Senate leader who’s not running for reelection.
On Tuesday, Lummis endorsed short-lived 2024 presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy’s bid for Ohio governor.
What About The Others?
Rep. Harriet Hageman will also be up for reelection in 2026 if she chooses to run for that position again. She raised $233,694 in the first quarter.
Her biggest donor was the Chroman Family Limited Partnership, which gave her $13,300 this year. Members of the Chroman family also gave her an additional $6,600.
Corporations and groups giving to Hageman included Williams Companies, the National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association, the Institute of Makers of Explosives, IHeartMedia, Chain Bridge Bank, the Puyallup Tribe Of Indians.
Hageman has $848,312 cash-in-hand.
Sen. John Barrasso is not up for reelection again until 2030 but is now the Senate Majority Whip, the No. 2 ranking position in the Senate. He raised $170,217 in the first quarter and spent $215,949.
Giving to Barrasso was the National Association of Convenience Stores, Hess Corporation, Asian American Hotel Owners Association, Meta (Facebook), McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Proctor & Gamble and Toyota.
He has $7.6 million cash-in-hand.
He’ll likely be very busy during the 2026 election cycle giving money to candidates.
