Largely self-financed. Of about $371,000 in total receipts through his pre-runoff FEC report, roughly $316,700 — about 85% — is a personal loan Kozycki made to his own campaign (still carried as a debt owed); only about $54,000 came from individual donors. He has accepted no PAC money, consistent with his pledge to ban congressional stock trading and overturn Citizens United.
$370,743 raised · $291,410 cash on hand — as of May 27, 2026 (FEC latest filing).
