Campaign money

Method

In the 2025–26 cycle Pressley’s campaign raised $1.2M: $1.0M (84%) from individuals and $80K (7%) from PACs and other committees. Cash on hand: $76K.

Through Aug 12, 2026; filings lag, so recent gifts can take weeks to appear. Money raised also counts loans and transfers, so the shares need not add to 100%. Source: FEC.gov.
