Jessica Anderson, President of Sentinel Action Fund, made the following statement:
"With one week until Election Day, conservative candidates are closing the gaps in battleground states and showing impressive leads in races across the country. These Senate and House races are consequential as voters in these states will decide whether Congress will stand up against the Biden Administration the next two years.
The Sentinel Action Fund is pleased to play a major part in the Senate races in Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, and New Hampshire to support conservative candidates willing to fight on behalf of the American people. Moreover, the investments in these races occurred at pivotal moments — the bulk of our spending was deployed near the beginning of early voting to reach voters just as they began heading to the polls.
Today, we announce that our total spending has exceeded $13 million in a unified effort to usher in a new era of American leadership and opportunity for all Americans. With a conservative vision, these new leaders will be able to deliver on their promises to the American people to tackle inflation, fight rising crime, and secure the border."
