In all, the Mackenzie for Congress campaign raised more than $800,000 in this period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m honored by the outpouring of support from so many people in our community and throughout the nation,\u201d\u00a0<strong>said Congressman Mackenzie<\/strong>. \u201cFrom my first day in Congress, I have been dedicated to keeping my promises to the people of the Greater Lehigh Valley. On border security, tax cuts for working families and seniors, and reforming government, I\u2019m proud to say that we have delivered. This latest report makes one thing clear: working people are standing behind the candidate who fights for them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Congressman Mackenzie also addressed the onslaught of negative advertising and rhetoric from special interests and opposing candidates. This fundraising haul \u2014 Mackenzie for Congress\u2019 highest ever \u2014 is the latest evidence that these attacks have only served to rally his supporters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile I have been delivering for our communities, far-left special interests have wasted millions of dollars in an attempt to keep me from delivering on my promises to our community,\u201d\u00a0<strong>said Congressman Mackenzie<\/strong>. \u201cOutside groups and left-wing candidates have launched an unprecedented campaign of fear, lies, and division, and they\u2019re targeting the people of the Greater Lehigh Valley. These latest numbers prove that they are failing. With the help of the tens of thousands of working men and women who are standing with me, we will continue to cut through the lies, defeat the special interests, and deliver on our promises to the American people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Information provided to TVL by:<br \/>\nArnaud Armstrong<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fundraising Quarter Driven By More Than 16,000 Low Dollar Donors (Allentown, PA) Ryan Mackenzie, the incumbent Republican congressman representing the Greater Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania\u2019s 7th Congressional District, today announced &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/?p=143706\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Mackenzie Announces Over $1 Million Cash-On-Hand For Campaign<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":143707,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[69,482],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-143706","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-in-the-valley","category-press-release-2"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ryan-mackenzi-for.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143706"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=143706"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143706\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/143707"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=143706"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=143706"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=143706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
