AFP Action Endorses Ashley Hinson for U.S. Senate 

DES MOINES, IA— Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) today announced its endorsement of Ashley Hinson for U.S. Senate. A longtime policy champion for sister organization Americans for Prosperity, Hinson has fought for Iowans in the U.S. House of Representatives, securing policy wins on right-to-work issues and consistently advocating for the REINS Act

Tyler Raygor, AFP Action Senior Advisor, issued the following statement: 

“AFP Action is proud to endorse Ashley Hinson in her bid to represent Iowa in the U.S. Senate. A former state representative, congresswoman, mother and life-long Iowan, Hinson deeply understands our communities and will continue to fight for the future of our state. 

“Hinson approaches issues in Congress with a clear commitment to free-market principles and limited government. Throughout her time as a public servant, Hinson has worked to balance the budget, cut taxes, and protect the most vulnerable.” 

AFP Action will deploy its full grassroots infrastructure in support of Hinson’s campaign, including door-to-door voter engagement, targeted outreach, and data-driven voter contact efforts. Early engagement will be critical in a race that will help shape the direction of the country for years to come.  

AFP Action Endorses Kurt Alme for U.S. Senate 

MISSOULA, MT — Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) today announced its endorsement of Kurt Alme for the United States Senate, backing a proven leader with a record of delivering results and advancing policies rooted in economic freedom, limited government, and accountability. 

Jesse Ramos, AFP Action Senior Advisor, issued the following statement: 

“Kurt Alme has a proven track record in tax policy, budgeting, public safety, and public service. He approaches these issues with a clear commitment to free-market principles and limited government. Just as important, his record shows he knows how to turn those principles into results. That’s why AFP Action is proud to support Kurt Alme for U.S. Senate.” 

Alme brings a results-driven background to the race. As Montana’s former U.S. Attorney under President Trump, he led efforts to combat violent crime, drug trafficking, and public corruption across the state. In the private sector, Alme’s work at Crowley Fleck provided firsthand experience with the real-world impact of regulation and federal policy on businesses and job creators. 
 
As Gov. Martz’s Revenue Director, Kurt Alme helped implement the largest income tax cut in Montana’s modern history—reducing the top rate by roughly 37% and simplifying the system. At a time when rising federal spending is driving inflation and making it harder for Montana families to get ahead, that kind of leadership matters. Alme has a proven record of keeping taxes low, reining in spending, and advancing policies that put more money back in the pockets of hardworking Montanans. 

This race will determine whether Montana continues to lead on pro-growth policies — low taxes, responsible spending, energy development, and regulatory restraint — or whether we drift toward the same top-down, government-heavy approach that has driven up costs and limited opportunity across the country. 

Kurt Alme offers a clear approach— disciplined, limited government, strong economic growth, and the freedom for Montanans to build their own future without interference from Washington. 

AFP Action will deploy its full grassroots infrastructure in support of Alme’s campaign, including door-to-door voter engagement, targeted outreach, and data-driven voter contact efforts. Early engagement will be critical in a race that will help shape the direction of the country for years to come.

Young Kim is a principled conservative who puts Californians first and has the record to prove it.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Sarah Scott issued the following statement:

Elections are won on the ground, and Saturday’s kickoff showed the energy and commitment already behind John Sununu. With margins expected to be razor-thin, the conversations happening at the doors right now will make all the difference come November.

“The message we heard from voters was clear—families are being squeezed and want real relief they can feel in their day-to-day lives, not more empty promises. John Sununu is the proven leader we need. He is someone who will fight for lower taxes, more opportunity, and a stronger economy. The energy we saw on the ground today is exactly what it’s going to take to turn out voters and secure victory in November.” 

John Sununu said

I am very grateful to have the endorsement of Americans for Prosperity Action and thankful to everyone who joined me knocking doors on Saturday. Had good conversations with voters and especially appreciated those who signed on to support my candidacy. The energy and enthusiasm of AFP Action volunteers and supporters is critical to our winning in November. As Senator, I’ll have just one job—stand up for the people of New Hampshire every single day.

Background on AFP Action Endorsed Candidate John Sununu:   

John Sununu brings a legacy of principled leadership to drive real results for New Hampshire. As a former Congressman and Senator representing New Hampshire, Sununu spent 12 years in Washington fighting to rein in government overreach, cut taxes, and reduce wasteful spending. His work in regulatory reform helped streamline federal bureaucracy and protect small businesses from burdensome rules. Sununu’s commitment to limited government and fiscal discipline reflects the values Granite Staters care about most — accountability, efficiency, and economic freedom. He’s ready to return to Washington and ensure New Hampshire families keep more of what they earn, while restoring common sense to federal policymaking.

Daily Signal: Americans for Prosperity Action Endorses Husted

Rebecca Downs | 3/16/26

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Sen. Jon Husted is landing an endorsement from Americans for Prosperity Action in what is set to become its largest grassroots effort campaign.

As Donovan O’Neil, a senior adviser to AFP Action, explained to The Daily Signal, the support for the Ohio Republican will involve a “robust” campaign from digital ads to canvassing.

It will also include a data focus, identifying 2 million voters for AFP Action to engage. O’Neil said this bloc of voters can be the “change maker” in the election.

Former Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, is looking to make a comeback after losing to Republican now-Sen. Bernie Moreno in 2024.

AFP Action will immediately commence canvassing efforts across Ohio’s 88 counties.

As the secretary of state in 2017, Husted received the inaugural Taxpayers’ Torch Award from Americans for Prosperity’s Ohio chapter.

O’Neil applauded Husted’s efforts in the Senate on family tax cuts and on a principled balanced budget amendment. “Good government is the through line for Husted,” O’Neil shared, calling him “the future.”

Brown has attacked Husted on economic issues in recent weeks, saying the senator “would rather fight for billionaires” and calling attention to rising health care prices for Ohioans. 

“I’m in this for the Ohioans picking up odd jobs after work to help pay the rent. I’m in this for the parents putting $10 in the tank at a time just to make it to payday,” Brown said on X.

O’Neil recalled “consistently hearing at the doors in 2024” of concerns about the economy and inflation, a lack of reinvestment in Ohio, and border security.

Ohio has been a bellwether in past elections, and the state still carries significance in 2026. O’Neil acknowledged that Ohio “is a red state,” but that one “shouldn’t take Ohio voters for granted.”

“The final two years of [President Donald] Trump’s term will be highly impacted by how Ohio votes this November,” O’Neil said.

The Cook Political Report considers this Senate race as “Lean Republican.” The Ohio 2024 Senate race was reportedly the most expensive in the country, and this year’s race could follow that pattern.

AFP Action Launches Statewide Grassroots Efforts Supporting U.S. Senator Jon Husted

COLUMBUS, OH – As reported in The Daily Signal today, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) today endorsed Senator Jon Husted (R-OH) for election and began statewide grassroots efforts across Ohio that will be the largest voter engagement effort in AFP Action’s history.

AFP Action will target 1.5 million households across Ohio representing 2 million voters with door-to-door outreach in support of Sen. Husted from today through election day. This groundwork will communicate Husted’s outstanding record from his first year in office, reinforcing AFP Action’s targeted strategy to turn out the right voters and elect him for a full term in the U.S. Senate.

Donovan O’Neil, AFP Action senior advisor, issued the following statement:

“At a time when many Ohioans are struggling with rising living costs, AFP Action is proud to announce its endorsement of Senator Jon Husted for election. Husted has championed transformative tax reform and responsible spending throughout his entire career, from the Ohio state House to the U.S. Senate, where he drove support for President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cut. 

“This year’s election presents a critical opportunity for Ohioans to protect the Republican majority in the Senate and prevent Sherrod Brown from returning to push his Washington first, Ohio second economic policies. Husted is the clear choice for Ohioans concerned about lingering inflation and reigning in federal spending.

“Husted will have the support of AFP Action’s vast network of grassroots activists across the state, who will work non-stop until November to ensure he continues to represent hardworking Ohioans in Washington and that Sherrod Brown stays in retirement.”

AFP Action Endorses Byron Donalds for Governor

TALLAHASSEE, FL – Today, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) endorsed Byron Donalds for governor of Florida. AFP Action will deploy its vast grassroots capabilities throughout the Sunshine State to educate and mobilize voters in support of Congressman Donalds leading up to the August 18th primary.

AFP Action senior adviser for Florida Skylar Zander released the following statement:

“Congressman Donalds built a strong policy record for himself during his time in Congress, and AFP Action is confident that he will continue to be a leader on housing and insurance reform, education, and fiscal oversight as governor. We are glad that Congressman Donalds wants to protect Florida’s 2023 tort reform laws and to continue depopulating Citizens Property Insurance Corporation. He is a strong supporter of school choice, having passed legislation that created the Hope Scholarship.

“Florida’s next governor will surely make decisions that will impact Floridians beyond the next four years. That’s why it is critical that our next governor not only has a proven policy record but also exercises solid leadership. Floridians deserve a race focused on the real issues that matter—attainable homeownership, education freedom, insurance stability, and fiscal responsibility—rather than personal attacks, political games or divisive rhetoric that pulls attention away from solutions.

“Congressman Donalds is running a campaign grounded in real solutions—tackling the big challenges facing Florida today and building a stronger future for families through proven conservative policies and strong principled leadership. AFP Action is thrilled to support Donalds and looks forward to deploying our grassroots network on his behalf.”
