Boise, ID – After recently announcing his candidacy for Idaho’s 1st Congressional District, Russ Fulcher is touting the support of a robust number of elected officials and community leaders. Fulcher also raised over $54,000 while fundraising for only seven days before the federal reporting deadline, June 30th.

“Russ has serious momentum,” said Senator Steve Vick (R-2). “Russ is a man of strong character, and he has the experience necessary to do an excellent job representing Idaho and fighting government overreach in Washington.”

“Russ is a strong candidate for Congress, and his campaign is off to a great start,” said Rep. John Vander Woude, Majority Caucus Chairman. “Russ will go to Washington DC and get things done without compromising his principles. We need people like him representing Idaho in Congress.”

Fulcher has received the endorsement of Congressman Raúl Labrador, the current and outgoing representative of Idaho’s 1st Congressional District. Elected officials in support of Fulcher include Tammy de Weerd, Mayor of Meridian and Fulcher’s hometown. Idaho Treasurer Ron Crane has announced his support of Russ as well.
