Three generations of the most famous family in Texas politics are planning to descend on Houston in the coming days to rally with major donors to Jeb Bush's presidential campaign and try to raise more money for the former Florida governor.
The weekend gathering, once billed as a "special appreciation event" for Jeb Bush's biggest financial backers, comes at a precarious time for his White House hopes. His campaign announced Friday it was making significant cutbacks, reportedly reducing its payroll by 40 percent, trimming travel costs by 20 percent and scaling back 45 percent on some other costs.
Jeb Bush's father and brother former presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, respectively will be on hand over the weekend in Houston to thank the campaign's top bundlers. Also expected to attend are Jeb Bush's two sons, Jeb Bush Jr. and George P. Bush, the Texas land commissioner. Jeb Bush bundlers who raised a certain amount at least $50,000 by some accounts were expected to attend the gathering.
Jeb Bush's campaign is taking the opportunity to raise some fresh cash, starting with a breakfast Monday morning at the Houston Hilton Americas headlined by Jeb Bush and his wife, Columba. While Columba Bush starred at a fundraiser for her husband last month in San Antonio, the Houston breakfast marks the first time the two have appeared together in Texas. According to an invitation, the event costs $10,000 to co-chair, $5,400 to host, $1,000 to sponsor or $500 to attend.

It's a funny world someone will actually cough up $60,000 to do something I'd schedule a colonoscopy to avoid.
Mr. niteowl77
Someone get word to Bush. All your cash is trash.
They need to super-charge his fat cat donors because rank and file Republicans don’t view him as electable.
He needs to retire campaign debt and I think this where the money will go.
Jeb is ready to mail it in.
Possibly.
