Tom Steyer To Spend Another $30M In Effort Against Trump: Report

CALIFORNIA -- Tom Steyer, the California billionaire that has appeared in television advertisements, told the Washington Post he plans to invest another $30 million in his fight against President Donald Trump and the GOP agenda. The investment comes after Steyer has already spent $100 million during the presidential election and $20 million in an effort to impeach Trump.

Steyer, the founder of NextGen, a political action committee, told the Washington Post he will spend the $30 million on a campaign "to increase millennial voter turnout."

"The targets are 24 Republican-controlled congressional districts and a handful of swing seats currently held by Democrats, in 10 states," the Washington Post reported. "Among the targets are all seven Republican-controlled California districts where Donald Trump ran behind Hillary Clinton; six districts in Pennsylvania, where Clinton made some gains in the suburbs of Philadelphia among moderate Republicans; three districts in South Florida; and Wisconsin’s first district, where House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R) has been safely reelected, but ironworker Randy Bryce has raised millions of dollars for an insurgent Democratic challenge."

With his plans to increase voter turnout, Steyer will not seek a run for elective office despite his growing presence in politics.

"Steyer’s decision removes some of the drama from California’s races for governor and U.S. Senate, which had attracted ambitious Democrats who had been wanting to move up for years," the Washington Post wrote.
