Cassidy campaign says challenger inflated campaign donations
U.S. Sen. Bill Cassidy, MD, speaks during the 2023 LegisGator Luncheon on Friday at L'auberge Casino Resort. (Rodrick Anderson / American Press) By Nolan McKendry | The Center Square Republican state Treasurer John Fleming, who is challenging GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy in next year's Louisiana Senate primary, loaned his campaign $2 million just before the end of the first and second fundraising quarters — then repaid himself in the interim. According to campaign finance reports filed with the Federal Election Commission, Fleming loaned his campaign $2 million on March 25, just days before the Q1 filing deadline. Fleming then reimbursed himself the full amount on April 3, shortly after the quarter closed. Then on June 24, Fleming again loaned the campaign the same $2 million just ahead of the Q2 deadline. The transactions — now public via FEC Schedule A and B filings — show no additional outside contributions in those amounts, raising questions about the true financial health of Fleming's bid. 'John Fleming did not raise $2.1 million last quarter,' Cassidy's team said in a statement. 'He reloaned himself the same $2 million he had previously given and paid back. In reality, he raised just $115,000 and spent about $175,000 — a net negative quarter.' By contrast, Cassidy reported a record-breaking $2.1 million raised in Q2 and now holds more than $9 million cash on hand — the most ever at this point in any Louisiana Senate race, his campaign said. Fleming's filings come as he attempts to frame Cassidy as out of step with conservative voters and aligned too often with Democrats. Fleming, a former four-term congressman and founding member of the House Freedom Caucus, has repeatedly slammed Cassidy's vote to convict Donald Trump after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and his support for the bipartisan infrastructure law, calling both positions betrayals of the Republican base. Fleming's campaign announcement was centered on loyalty to Trump and the 'America First' movement. While Cassidy has toned down criticism of Trump in recent months and said he would work with him if reelected, Fleming argues Cassidy's impeachment vote alone should disqualify him from winning the Republican primary. The race is shaping up as an early test of the GOP's direction in Louisiana under the state's new partially closed primary system, in which only registered Republicans and unaffiliated voters may participate in party primaries for federal races. The change, approved by state lawmakers this year, ends the state's long-standing 'jungle primary' format for congressional elections. Fleming has picked up some endorsements from conservative allies in Congress, but remains a significant underdog in the money race. Cassidy ended 2024 with over $6.5 million in the bank. Fleming's end-of-year report showed less than $6,500 raised in Q4 and nearly $530,000 in campaign debt. A recent Morning Consult poll showed 69% of Louisiana Republicans approve of Cassidy's job performance.

In Louisiana, Bill Cassidy raises mountain of cash to defend seat against MAGA Republicans
Louisiana incumbent Republican U.S. Sen. Bill Cassidy continues to build a mountain of money to defend his seat in 2026 against at least two GOP opponents who question his MAGA credentials. Cassidy's campaign announced Louisiana's senior senator will report $9 million cash on hand after raising $2.1 million more in the second quarter. Second-quarter campaign finance reports aren't due until July 15, but Cassidy's campaign announced his haul early to flex the candidate's financial muscles. 'I'm grateful for the outpouring of support from many who want proven conservative leadership,' Cassidy said in a statement. 'I am proud to have worked with President Trump to pass the One Big Beautiful Bill and will continue to deliver real results that put Louisiana First.' Cassidy has aligned himself closely with Trump during the president's second term. It's an effort to regain the support of the president's MAGA legion after Cassidy voted to convict Trump during the president's impeachment trial. Republican opponents state Treasurer John Fleming and state Sen. Blake Miguez are counting on Trump voters to consider Cassidy's impeachment vote an unforgiveable political sin. Miguez announced his candidacy last month, saying Cassidy "sucked," while Fleming said he doesn't believe anyone who voted to impeach Trump can be elected in Louisiana. "Anybody who voted to impeach or convict Trump in a red state will all be gone when their terms are up," Fleming said in an interview with USA Today. Cassidy countered that his record is more than MAGA worthy, noting he was the swing vote for approving two of Trump's most controversial cabinet nominees — Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. "(Trump) has got two cabinet secretaries he would not have unless I'd gotten them approved," Cassidy said previously when asked about his MAGA credentials. He also championed Trump's "Big, Beautiful" tax and spending bill in the Senate. Cassidy will try to fend off his fellow Republicans during next year's April election in the state's first closed primary in decades.
