    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The League of Conservation Voters, a leading climate organization that is among the biggest spenders on progressive causes, announced its plans for backing Mr. Biden on Tuesday, at a moment when his Republican challenger, former President Donald J. Trump, is struggling to raise funds.

    “We will be communicating with voters in the battleground states and in the key races about the stakes, why President Biden has been such a champ on climate change and the obvious and extreme peril of having Donald Trump and his MAGA acolytes and big oil pleasers back in office for another four years.”

    Nor does the $1 billion account for an expected influx in the tens of millions — if not more — from organizations that support Democrats including Planned Parenthood, and the political groups backed by Michael R. Bloomberg, the billionaire former New York mayor.

    Mr. Biden’s campaign announced on Sunday that it, along with the Democratic National Committee and affiliated fund-raising organizations, entered March with $155 million in cash on hand.

    “These are real and meaningful investments that we expect will go to reaching the voters who will decide this election, while Donald Trump and a cash-strapped Republican Party continue to show zero interest or ability to build a winning coalition,” said Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Mr. Biden’s campaign manager.

    Ms. Muller said the enormous expenditures by outside groups could, if Mr. Biden is re-elected with Democratic majorities in Congress, lead to long-sought limits on the flow of such large sums into the American political ecosystem.
