U.S. President Bush leaves from Waco, Texas, on Monday, for fund-raisers in
Dallas and Houston. At two campaign stops Monday in his home state of Texas,
Bush will add another $3 million to his already unprecedented war chest, the
Bush-Cheney campaign said.
"Today, President Bush will attend a Bush-Cheney '04 luncheon in Dallas,
Texas. The event will be attended by 1,100 supporters and will raise $1,500,000
for the campaign," a campaign statement said.
"Tonight, President Bush is scheduled to attend a Bush-Cheney '04 reception
in Houston, Texas. The event will raise $1,500,000 for the campaign and will be
attended by 1,100 supporters."
As of January 31 -- the last date that figures were available -- Bush had
$104 million in his campaign's treasury. He raised millions more throughout
February, and recently launched a $10 million TV advertising
campaign.
