Rep. Burgess Owens (R., Utah) helped to elect more than 40 candidates this cycle via either in-person campaign events or donations, his campaign told the Washington Reporter.

Owens, who is running to chair the House’s Education and Workforce Committee, campaigned for incumbents, in potentially tough districts, such as Rep. Michelle Steel (R., Calif.), John James (R., Mich.), Jeff Van Drew (R., N.J.), Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R., Iowa), and Monica de la Cruz (R., Texas).

Owens also campaigned for successful GOP challengers, like Rob Bresnahan, who ousted Rep. Matt Cartwright (D., Penn.). Owens also donated tens of thousands of dollars to dozens of GOP candidates who were part of Speaker Mike Johnson’s Slate and Patriot Programs, including to returning Reps. Don Bacon (R., Neb.), Brian Fitzpatrick (R., Pa.), and Tom Kean (R., N.J.), and to his future colleagues, like Tom Barrett, who flipped a House seat in Michigan.

The Reporter spoke last month with Owens about his vision for chairing the Education and Workforce Committee, and transforming it from a “pass through” committee to a standout one.
