The NRCC also announced Tuesday that Schock will serve as chairman of the NRCC’s March dinner — one of the committee’s top fundraising events of the year. Schock pledged to raise an additional $1 million for the committee before the March 26 event.

The funds will go toward aiding the NRCC’s efforts to keep control of the GOP’s House majority. Republicans have boasted they want to expand their 17-seat advantage over Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections.
