California Democrat Sam Liccardo raised nearly $1.5 million in his first quarter as a member of Congress, according to a source familiar with the Liccardo camp — a hefty sum for a freshman lawmaker.
Additionally, Liccardo, the former mayor of San Jose, transferred $110,000 to Democratic frontline members, the source told NOTUS. The transfers not only aid Democrats in their efforts to take back the majority next cycle but also help boost Liccardo’s profile with his new colleagues.
“Sam knows that regaining the majority will take fresh ideas, hard work and resources. That’s why he’s already given $110,000 to frontline members who will be the majority makers in 2026,” the source said.
