WILMINGTON, DE — Dr. Mike Katz today announced that he has been officially endorsed as the America First candidate for the United States Senate in Delaware by America First Insight, a national organization that vets and endorses candidates committed to the America First agenda.
The endorsement highlights the significance of Delaware's 2026 U.S. Senate race and Dr. Katz's readiness to take on incumbent Senator Chris Coons.
"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."
— America First Insight
In its endorsement, America First Insight cited Dr. Katz's four decades of experience in medicine and his platform for restoring affordability, choice, and accountability to American healthcare.
"Dr. Mike is running for the Senate because he wants to help Republicans deregulate the health care industry and make it affordable again. After spending more than four decades practicing medicine, he has seen firsthand how excessive regulations have driven up costs and made it harder for both doctors and patients."
— America First Insight
The organization also underscored Dr. Katz's positions on the economy, energy, immigration, and reform of the Department of Veterans Affairs.
"On the economy, Dr. Mike believes in common-sense fiscal responsibility. He supports cutting wasteful government spending and opposes raising taxes to help protect American families from inflation."
— America First Insight
"Dr. Mike also understands that a strong energy sector is the foundation of American prosperity. That includes his vocal support for expanding nuclear power, a position we strongly agree with."
— America First Insight
"On immigration, Dr. Mike supports ending the incentives that encourage illegal immigration, streamlining the immigration court system, and designating the cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations."
— America First Insight
Dr. Katz thanked America First Insight for its support and reaffirmed his commitment to putting Delaware families first.
"I am proud to be recognized as the America First candidate in this race. Delaware families are paying more, waiting longer for care, and watching Washington ignore them. I am running to change that — with the same discipline and accountability I have brought to medicine and to business."
— Dr. Mike Katz
The America First Insight endorsement joins a rapidly growing coalition of Republican leaders and grassroots organizations backing Dr. Katz's candidacy, including Trump-endorsed former U.S. Attorney and former Delaware GOP Chair Julianne Murray, the Delaware Republican Party, the Independent Party of Delaware, the Northern New Castle County Republican Party, the national College Republicans of America, the Delaware College Republicans, former two-time Republican congressional nominee Lee Murphy, State Senator Dave Lawson, and other state and county Republican officials.
Dr. Katz faces the Republican primary election on September 15, 2026 against former U.S. Army Colonel John Shulli. The winner advances to the November general election against incumbent Senator Chris Coons.
