Michael Byrd
Bridge Points Project
Michael Byrd learned perfection from his father, a Midwestern BBQ champion who knew how to craft a winning recipe. He brought that same precision to politics, becoming a top Republican strategist and fundraiser. Byrd has raised over half a billion dollars for campaigns and causes, connecting donors with elected officials to build relationships that deliver results.
Whether by building bridges or longer tables, Byrd’s goal is to establish a real bipartisan movement to end gridlock and score victories that actually matter.
