House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., is pouring campaign cash into vulnerable House Republicans as the GOP ramps up efforts to protect its razor-thin majority in the November midterm elections.

Johnson transferred an average of $100,000 to incumbent Republicans in battleground districts during the second quarter while providing an average of $150,000 to GOP challengers seeking to flip Democrat-held seats, the Washington Examiner reported Wednesday.

The support came as Johnson posted another blockbuster fundraising quarter, bringing in $19.1 million between April and June.

Johnson has now raised more than $53 million this year and more than $135 million during the 2026 election cycle, underscoring his position as one of the Republican Party’s top fundraisers.

Johnson’s team said he has distributed more than $500,000 to two dozen battleground incumbents through his joint fundraising committee this cycle, while directing more than $80 million to House Republicans, campaign committees, and state parties.
