16 endorsers listed on Michael "Dr. Mike" Katz’s own campaign site: 3 parties, 7 officials, 4 organizations, 2 people.
This is the campaign's claim, checked by an editor against its page; the endorsers have not confirmed it to us. Each name opens the campaign’s page with that name highlighted.
Sussex County Republican Party
Executive Committee — Chairman Tom Molnar
“Character matters. Trust matters. Mike understands Sussex County — and he will fight to protect our values, our economy, and our way of life.”
Northern New Castle County Republican Party
Northern New Castle County Executive Committee
“Dr. Katz is the only Republican candidate who possesses the broad, common-sense appeal necessary to defeat incumbent Senator Chris Coons in the general election. As a physician, business owner, corporate executive, and former Delaware State Senator, Dr. Katz offers a proven track record of fiscal responsibility, government accountability, and a true understanding of the real-world issues facing Delaware families.”
State Senator · Delaware State Senate 18th District (Kent & Sussex Counties)
“I also believe Dr. Katz is the Republican who gives us our best opportunity to defeat Chris Coons this November. He has the ability to unite Republicans while earning the confidence of Independents and common-sense Democrats who are looking for experienced leadership and practical solutions.”
State Rep. · Delaware House 39th District & Former House Minority Leader
“I believe Dr. Mike Katz gives Republicans our strongest opportunity to defeat Chris Coons and build the broad coalition necessary to win a statewide election. Just as importantly, a strong Senate campaign will help Republican candidates across Delaware by increasing voter turnout in legislative races.”
Trump-Endorsed Former U.S. Attorney & Former Delaware GOP Chair
“This race is not about party labels. It's about who is best prepared to take on Chris Coons and finally give Delaware a voice that puts our state first. Dr. Mike Katz is that candidate.”
Former 2x Republican Nominee for U.S. House of Representatives, Delaware
“Throughout my time on the campaign trail, my focus has always been simple: control wasteful spending, protect our economy, and bring a practical approach to government. I know Dr. Mike Katz shares these exact priorities. He is a leader of integrity who answers directly to the voters, not to special interests or party insiders.”
State Senator · Delaware State Senator
“In a race this important, Delaware needs someone who can build a broad coalition, bring people together, and win. That is why I am proud to support Dr. Mike Katz for the United States Senate.”
Vice Chairman, Republican State Committee of Delaware
“As former Sussex County Chair and now Vice Chair of the Delaware Republican Party, I have had the chance to see what leadership looks like at the local and state level. It requires consistency, discipline, and the ability to carry responsibility on behalf of others. Mike brings those qualities forward in a way that is steady and real. This race is about more than rhetoric. It is about who is prepared to do the job.”
Chairman, Sussex County Republican Committee
“I want to say something that I know people are thinking about. Dr. Katz has run as a Democrat. He has run as an Independent. And now he is running as a Republican. To me, that says he took the time to figure out where he stands, and like Ronald Reagan, he chose to be here. That matters. He has served as a State Senator. He knows this state. He knows the people here. And he understands what is at stake.”
National America First Endorsement
“Delaware faces a critical election this November. Voters have the opportunity to retire a career politician, and Republicans across the state need to be firing on all cylinders to stop Democrats from securing a supermajority in the state legislature. With Dr. Mike Katz at the top of the ticket, Delaware has the opportunity to change course.”
Co-signed with the College Republicans at the University of Delaware
“Dr. Katz’s motto of putting ‘people over politics’ is exactly the solution our country desperately needs in the current moment. We need fearless leaders with experience in winning for Delaware, both within and outside the political sphere, serving our great state. Dr. Mike Katz is exactly the man to fill this role and we are grateful for his courage and leadership.”
President, Delaware State Sportsmen’s Association (DSSA)
Chair, Western New Castle Region Republican Committee
“Let us come together. Let us stand united. Let us put forward a candidate who gives Delaware Republicans the strongest opportunity to win. I am proud to support Dr. Mike Katz for the United States Senate.”

By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 2 states and territories. Donors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized, so they cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.

The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total. Gifts of $200 or less ($10,774) are not itemized, so no employer or occupation is filed for them.
