Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) has had her share of differences with Congressional Republican leaders and former President Donald Trump during the first half of the year.
Despite those differences, the Wyoming Congresswoman is raking in campaign donations, according to Fox News.
On Tuesday, the outlet received Cheney’s fundraising totals for the April to June period. As Fox reports, she raised $1.88 million during those three months, surpassing the $1.5 million she raised during the first three months of the year.
Additionally, the roughly $3.5 million she raised during the first six months of the year is more than the $3 million she raised for her 2020 reelection bid.
Cheney, formerly the No. 3 House Republican, was one of 10 Republicans in the lower chamber to vote to impeach Trump on the charge of incitement of insurrection.
In the months following her impeachment vote, Cheney became a vocal critic of Trump’s unfounded claims that the presidential election was stolen through fraud.
House Republicans voted to strip her of her leadership position in May, as IJR reported.
