Sen. Cory Booker, a 2020 hopeful who hasn’t managed to gain much traction in both state and national polls, recently vowed to refuse support from fundraising Super PACs, which turned out to be the reported primary reason why one Super PAC, who was actively raising money for the New Jersey senator, decided to shut down on Wednesday.
According to The Hill, a group called Dream United, which was founded by Steve Phillips — a man who has plenty of experience raising big dollars for high-profile candidates like former President Barack Obama and Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, closed its doors after being in operation for nearly a year.
“We remain firm in our belief that Sen. Cory Booker is uniquely qualified to unite and heal Americans across this country at this critical point in our history,” the Super PAC’s website said, in the wake of the announcement.
