Implicit in this move is that the state party can’t be trusted to fulfill its basic functions.
an entire electoral operation, hiring its own staffers, stationed in the Empire State to handle opposition research, rapid response, messaging, and more.
All of those are things that, in every other blue state, would be entrusted to the state parties and their respective House campaigns. But after the New York Dems’ 2022 breakdown, and their subsequent refusal to submit to any leadership or structural changes, the PAC does not have to gamble the fate of the 2024 House majority on some newfound competence. To national Democratic groups, having their own in-state shadow operations is a better bet.
“It’s the most active we’ve been in a nonelection year by far, even in little things,” added Warnke. The $45 million pledge comes after the already-substantial $13 million the group spent to aid the state’s congressional Democrats in 2022. At times in the past, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the campaign arm of House Democrats, has sent staffers to embed in areas of the country with high electoral consequence—mostly swing states with a high density of competitive House districts. But committing this amount of money, this level of infrastructure, this early, has never been done by Dems.
D.C.’s parachute mission is also notable because of the House Democrats’ recent leadership changes. Since its creation more than a decade ago, House Majority PAC has been closely affiliated with the top-ranking House Democrat, which, until last November, was Nancy Pelosi. Pelosi passed the torch to new caucus leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is himself a representative from New York and knows the state party and its failings intimately.
