Incumbent lawmakers and hopeful challengers are gearing up for the 2022 midterms, just three months after members of the 117th Congress were sworn in.

U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, one of 10 House Republicans to vote to impeach Donald Trump, reported raising $2.2 million in the first three months of the year — half for his reelection fund and half going to the anti-Trump political action committee he launched at the end of January.
