Log Cabin Republicans PAC Announces First Round of Endorsements

(Washington, DC) Log Cabin Republicans Federal Political Action Committee has released its first slate of endorsed candidates for the 2026 election cycle.

Log Cabin Republicans Political Director Noah Rothstein released the following statement in celebrating this first round of endorsed candidates :

"With strong support from grassroots members and chapters across the nation, the Log Cabin Republicans (LCR) Political Action Committee is excited to announce its first wave of endorsed challengers and incumbents for the 2026 election cycle. Not only do our candidates have the tenacity and grit to maintain our majorities in the U.S. House and Senate, but they also have the experience to bring common sense back to Washington and help President Trump get our country back on track. While each of our candidates are distinct in their stories, experiences, and skills, they stand united in the desire to expand economic opportunity, protect individual liberty, safeguard marriage equality, and prioritize the safety and security of all Americans. These endorsees are candidates that all members of our LCR family can be proud of, and I look forward to welcoming them to Washington in January as members of the 120th Congress."
