The group, he added, is “made up of members that are more concerned about getting their policy work done than getting the latest hit on TV.”
Several House freshmen who won competitive races in 2020 are among 16 new Main Street members, including California’s Young Kim and Florida’s Carlos Gimenez and María Elvira Salazar. Membership now totals almost 70, according to the group.
Another new freshman member, Iowa’s Randy Feenstra, who beat former Rep. Steve King in a primary last year, had Main Street’s backing in that race. Defending Main Street, the group’s super PAC, spent at least $100,000 against King, according to disclosures with the Federal Election Commission.
“I ran for Congress because I believe the people of my district and the country deserve results, not rhetoric,” Feenstra said in a statement. “In the Iowa Senate, I worked to build coalitions in support of my conservative agenda, including a balanced budget and historic tax cuts. I am working with my colleagues in the Republican Main Street Partnership to enact similar conservative reforms that deliver results for America’s Main Streets and family farmers.”
Other new members include Kentucky’s Andy Barr; New Jersey’s Jeff Van Drew, who switched his party affiliation from Democrat to Republican in 2019; California’s Jay Obernolte; Iowa’s Ashley Hinson and Mariannette Miller-Meeks; New York’s Chris Jacobs; Texas’ Michael McCaul and Tony Gonzales; and Utah’s Blake D. Moore.
