Sherrod Brown: U.S. Chamber of Commerce has once again reached into its deep pockets


Dear Robert L.,
Here we go again.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has once again reached into its deep pockets and produced another attack ad against me. Hundreds of thousands in negative T.V. began running this morning in Ohio, and the tone hasn’t changed – it’s as nasty and sleazy as the one where they distorted my picture.
But I won’t let misleading attack ads decide this election. And I know you won’t, either.
I know this isn’t the first time we’ve been attacked – after all, right-wing special interests have spent nearly $3 million so far. And you can bet it won’t be the last time.
But the way we win this campaign is by being ready – every time. And that means I need to rely on your support when we’re under attack.
We’re $34,387 towards our February goal, but this attack means we need to raise $20k today to stay on track. Click here to donate $5 and help us do just that!
Thank you for all your help.
Sherrod

Sign our pledge to fight for racial justice

  Dear Robert, We are witnessing the beginning of a historic movement. People are peacefully taking to the streets with calls for justice for the Black lives lost at the hands of law enforcement. They are demanding accountability and reform in order to address the systemic racism in our society.    I’m determined to operate my campaign with the same level of accountability and transparency that we are seeking in our systems. That’s why we’re making a pledge to fight for racial justice.    As a Black woman in elected office, race has been at the forefront of everything I’ve done.

Trump: Sudan to Join UAE, Bahrain in Recognizing Israel

  FIVE STORIES PRESIDENT TRUMP DOESN'T WANT YOU TO MISS Trump: Sudan to Join UAE, Bahrain in Recognizing Israel -The Associated Press “President Donald Trump announced Friday that Sudan will start to normalize ties with Israel, making it the third Arab state to do so as part of U.S.-brokered deals,” Deb Riechmann and Matthew Lee report. “Sudan had demonstrated its commitment in battling terrorism. ‘This is one of the great days in the history of Sudan,’” President Trump said.   🎬  BREAKING :  Israel and Sudan have agreed to make peace! Tech Censorship Is on a Dangerous Path -The Daily Signal “The titans of social media, [Jack] Dorsey at Twitter and Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook, lead their companies the way China does. These men want to control what the public sees, which enables them to better monitor and, ultimately, influence every aspect of society and life,” Armstrong Williams writes. “It is hard to imagine a more insidious effort to subvert freedom of speech, ex...

Kirsten: The stakes are too high this November to let elections be wrongly decided.

Image
Robert, The right to vote is as American as it gets – more even than baseball and apple pie. Which makes some state Republicans’ efforts to systematically disenfranchise minority and elderly voters unconscionable.  GOP extremists are pushing voter ID laws, purges of eligible voters and shorter polling hours. And, by overturning a key section of the Voting Rights Act, the Supreme Court made it easier for states to enact anti-voter laws. Enough. I’m joining with the Democratic Governors Association to tackle this from all angles – in Congress, where I’m partnering with Rep. John Lewis to pass a legislative fix, and in GOP-controlled states, where the most egregious anti-voter tactics are being deployed. Send the message right now that we will do whatever it takes to overcome attacks on our democracy. Click here to join the DGA and me by adding your name to the growing chorus of Americans calling for expanded voting rights. My Voter Empowerment Act would expand...

Jenny Beth Martin: We’re not going to simply sit in Washington

Image
Dear Patriot, Just a few days ago, we announced our  grassroots-powered ,  boots-on-the-ground  strategy to defeat big government incumbents all over America this year. And we are on the cusp of unveiling our list of endorsed Tea Party candidates for 2014. But before we can do that, we need your support to secure the funding that will push these candidates to victory! Please, make your very best contribution of $10, $25, $50, or whatever you can afford to the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund right now, and help us gear up for this year’s critical battles in Kentucky, South Carolina, and elsewhere. You see, as we announced earlier this week, the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund is already huddling with activists on the ground in  South Carolina , looking for an alternative to big-spending establishment Republican Lindsey Graham . And in  Kentucky , we are already coordinating with local Tea Party activists who have lost faith in the weak-kneed R...

President George H.W. Bush: guilty pleasure

GOP .com Robert, I don’t know what your guilty pleasures are in life, but one of mine is socks. I’m a self-proclaimed sock man. The louder, the brighter, the crazier the pattern -- the better! It’s usually the first thing people notice I’m wearing whenever I’m out in public and that’s the way I like it. So when Chairman Reince Priebus asked me to write to you on behalf of the Republican National Committee (RNC), I told him I’d be happy to do it. But on one condition:  my letter to you had to involve socks. I’m proud to say the RNC has commissioned a limited-edition pair of socks in my honor. Embroidered with the Republican elephant and my signature on them, they’re sure to get you noticed. You can get your own pair today or as a gift for your favorite Republican by sending a special campaign contribution of $35 or more to the RNC now.  And if you donate $35 or more to the RNC now, your gift will be matched by a group of donors.  Robert,...

Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund raised more money than Karl Rove’s three organizations combined!

Image
Dear Patriot, The first elections of the critical 2014 midterms are just weeks away.  Republican voters across the country will go to the polls to select their candidate for the important November elections. Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund is already on the ground, working with activists across the country, to ensure that we have conservative majorities in the House and Senate. Our Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund Team was recently in  South Carolina , sharing with activists the results of polling and message testing of voters in the state. "The actions the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund has already taken were a big boost to our activists' enthusiasm," Debbie Jones, with the Mt. Pleasant 9-12 Project, said in an email after the event. In the coming weeks, we will provide training so that thousands of activists in the state have the tools they need to go out and talk to their neighbors about the election. "The Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund is the only ...

Sarah: The Democratic National Party just confirmed: Carly is the *biggest* threat.

Image
Robert, I'm just going to come right out and say it: Carly dominated in the Fox News debate tonight, and we're counting on your help to take advantage of this momentum. Please, chip in just $13 to help us turn the tremendous amount of social media chatter about Carly's debate victory into lasting support for this campaign. Pundits from both sides of the aisle were blanketing social media with high praise for Carly's performance--declaring her the unanimous winner. Nate Silver of 538 said Carly was "crushing it." The Washington Post said Carly won "by a lot." Karl Rove said: "Carly Fiorina walked in tonight, owned the stage, owned it big." Pundits as diverse as George Will and Chris Wallace gave Carly the win, too. And, in our biggest compliment yet, the Democratic National Committee sent out an attack email about Carly just minutes after she stepped off the stage. The Democratic National Party just ...

Tim’s team: three parts of Tim’s education plan

Image
Did you know that Tim was the first candidate to ever talk about social emotional learning on a debate stage? Tim’s leadership on education has only been possible because of your support — but he needs you to continue backing him up. Without you, he can’t travel from state to state and make his case for these important issues. Social emotional learning, trauma based care, and tackling mental health are only three parts of Tim’s education plan. There is so much more that Tim envisions for our kids--but he can’t make the case for these critical policies without you.  Can you chip in $3 or whatever you can so Tim keeps fighting for our kids? Let’s keep building this movement together:  https://secure.timryanforamerica.com/ryan_education Thanks, Tim’s team

#YangGang: New York Times called him a longer-than-long-shot

Image
Friend -- We hope you’re as excited as we are about tomorrow night! Andrew’s recent growth in the polls has resulted in him being center-stage, not to mention qualifying for the September debates! Back when he first announced his campaign, the New York Times called him a longer-than-long-shot for the White House. Now, we're 6th in the polls and climbing fast. Celebrate with us with our Longer Than Long Shot Glass! Tomorrow night, Andrew will be presenting his vision for America next to members of Congress, sitting governors, and a former Vice President. While the other candidates are sure to trade barbs and attack each others’ records (they’ve been signalling it for weeks), Andrew will be focused on the problems facing Americans, and his big solutions to bring us through the greatest transformation our country has ever seen as automation replaces more and more workers. Also, get ready for his closing - he’ll be announcing a new project we’ve ...
