Liz Cheney's PAC gave $2.5 million to pro-Harris Super PAC
Former Rep. Liz Cheney’s (R-Wyo.) PAC donated $2.5 million in October to a Super political action committee (Super PAC), backing Vice President Harris in the 2024 presidential election.
Cheney’s Super PAC, Our Great Task, gave $2.5 million to American Bridge 21st Century (AB PAC), one of the Democratic Party’s top opposition research organizations on Oct. 8, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) reports filed on Thursday.
AB PAC has gone after former President Trump, Harris’s rival, this year, targeting him with negative ads on abortion and the events of Jan. 6, 2021. Cheney’s PAC, formed in March of this year, took subtle shots at the Republican nominee in June with a D-Day-themed ad.
“America deserves a president as good and steadfast as our nation, a president of character, driven by a noble purpose, one who honors the sacrifices of our troops, Cheney said in the ad. “Not a man consumed by spite, revenge and self-pity,”
Cheney, a vocal critic of Trump, said in early September that she would be voting for the Democratic nominee, arguing that “as a conservative, as someone who believes in and cares about the Constitution, I have thought deeply about this, and because of the danger that Donald Trump poses, not only am I not voting for Donald Trump but I will be voting for Kamala Harris.”
Harris has recently attempted to court members of the GOP who feel disaffected by the current party’s outlook dominated by Trump. Cheney, the former No. 3 House Republican, campaigned for Harris earlier in October and did so this week, hoping to turn some suburban voters in battleground states.
Our Great Task entered October with $4.7 million cash on hand, according to the latest FEC filings. The organization spent over $2.7 million so far in October and was left with over $2 million cash-on-hand, the reports showed. Cheney’s PAC has been paying into and getting donations through a Democratic fundraising platform, ActBlue, according to FEC reports.
The Hill has reached out to AB PAC for comment.
