The League of Conservation Voters is pledging a record amount of spending in the 2024 elections to support President Joe Biden and Democrats.

LCV Victory Fund announced Tuesday that the super political action committee and its affiliates plan to spend $120 million on the presidential race that is again pitting Biden against former President Donald Trump, as well as congressional and state races.

That would beat the $115 million that LCV Victory Fund and its affiliates spent in the 2020 elections and the $105 million in the 2022 midterm races.
