Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ political committee raised $161,909 in April, a major decrease from previous months, according to a newly filed finance report.

The Friends of Ron DeSantis committee raised nearly $10 million in February and about $3.68 million in March amid speculation about a possible 2024 White House bid by DeSantis.

In April, the committee’s largest cash contribution was $25,000 from Building a Better Florida, a committee chaired by lobbyist Michael Corcoran.

The DeSantis committee also received a $43,950 in-kind contribution from the Republican Party of Florida.

The committee had about $85.79 million in cash on hand as of April 30, the report shows.
