The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which began the cycle more than $11 million in debt, ended March with $23 million in the bank. The National Republican Congressional Committee, meanwhile, ended the month with $24.4 million on hand.
It is the first time in recent memory that the cash disparity between the two House campaign committees has been virtually nonexistent.
The NRCC and DCCC raised almost $9.2 million in March, when both held their annual spring fundraising events. Through March, the NRCC had raised $83.3 million for the cycle, while the DCCC had raised $57.7 million.
The NRCC spent $5.5 million during March, $2.5 million of which was on fundraising phone banks. Democrats spent $2.4 million, a little more than $538,000 on committee phone banking.
Both committees raised about $2 million in unitemized contributions those less than $200 last month.
At the end of March, the DCCC still showed $1.1 million in debts, while the NRCC had a little less than $500,000.
On the Senate side, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee ended the month with just more than $32 million in its account, compared to the $16.5 million held by the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
The DSCC raised $6.9 million in March and also took in more than twice what the NRSC did from donors who gave more than $200.
The NRSC raised more than $5 million and spent a little more than $3 million. The DSCC spent $2.2 million.
The DSCC raised slightly more from political action committees and other committees during the month.
