Progressive fund hits record $2.35M haul while blocking police union money

A joint fundraising committee for four progressive House Democrats has collected a record $2.35 million in the current election cycle.

Federal filings show the Squad Victory Fund raised $2,351,388.02 from January 2025 through October 2026. The committee is authorized by Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and Rashida Tlaib. It serves as a shared vehicle for these lawmakers and their allied political groups to collect and distribute campaign contributions.

The fund’s rules explicitly bar donations from the Fraternal Order of Police, the nation’s largest police organization. It also excludes money from corporations, federal lobbyists, and fossil fuel interests. The disclosure does not state a reason for the police union exclusion.

Four allied PACs also participate in the fund. Contributions are generally divided equally among the eight participants, with each slated to receive 12.5%. Donors may designate their contributions for a specific participant.

Through March 31, 2026, the committee had spent about $1.6 million and reported roughly $68,000 in cash on hand. The committee remains active, so those figures may change. The disclosure notes that contributions are not tax-deductible.
