Daniel Cameron is making an appearance again in Kentucky politics.

The former Kentucky attorney general has formed a political action committee called the "All 120 PAC" to help candidates with similar beliefs in Kentucky.

The group formed in late March and has not reported raising any money since an April 10 filing, according to records with the Federal Election Commission.

Because Cameron’s PAC is a super PAC, it can raise unlimited contributions, including from corporations.

Cameron was the Republican candidate for governor in 2023. He lost to Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear, with Beshear receiving support from 53% of voters. During his campaign, Cameron advocated for policies such as reforming the education system and being tough on crime.

After Cameron lost the gubernatorial election, he was appointed as the chief executive officer for the 1792 exchange, which is an organization that aims to counter "woke capitalism."

Cameron has been eyed as a contender for U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s seat if he doesn’t choose to run for reelection in 2026. Recently, McConnell announced that he would be stepping down from his leadership position in November, but will carry out the rest of his term.

Cameron has also been an ally of McConnell and has previously served as legal counsel to him.

Cameron isn’t the only Kentucky politician who has started his own PAC recently. Beshear launched a PAC called “In This Together” that will endorse and raise money for candidates across the nation for the 2024 election cycle.
