With an announcement expected later this month about a Senate bid, U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan reported raising more than $1.2 million during the first three months of this year.
It’s more than twice as much money as Ryan has ever raised in a quarter in his 18-plus years in Congress. His previous best quarter was July to September 2020 in which he raised $586,146.
Several sources close to Ryan, D-Howland, say he officially will announce his candidacy for the U.S. Senate later this month.
“Grassroots support for Tim Ryan continues to grow as Ohioans recognize a strong and authentic leader who fights every day to cut workers in on the deal,” Dennis Willard, his campaign spokesman, said in a prepared statement.
