Campaign money

Method

In the 2025–26 cycle Foxx’s campaign raised $1.7M: $1.1M (67%) from individuals and $420K (25%) from PACs and other committees. Cash on hand: $3.4M.

Through Jun 30, 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.
