Bob: immigrants’ rights, women’s rights, voting rights

Robert, this election isn’t over yet.
Louisiana’s runoff election is just four days away, and Democrats have one last chance to pick up another Senate seat and strengthen our defenses against Donald Trump’s destructive agenda.
I’m sure I don’t need to tell you what’s on the line: immigrants’ rights, women’s rights, voting rights … the list goes on. But Democrats can take a massive step toward blocking Trump’s dangerous proposals by electing Foster Campbell in Louisiana.
It all comes down to this, Robert: Can you give $5 or more right now to help win this crucial Senate seat so we can defend against Trump’s extremist agenda and protect everything we’ve worked for?
If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will automatically be evenly split between Foster Campbell and Bob Menendez:
Thank you,
Bob

Ben: "Dr. Carson has no political experience.", Obama didn't either...

Fellow Conservative, "We the People." By opening our Constitution with these three simple words, the Founders made it clear that in America, the citizens would be the center of power. Government would only act with our consent. This was the true American Revolution. I am running for President because too many people in Washington have forgotten this. Every day, we receive pictures like the ones below, with people declaring "I'm With Ben." I want you, as a hardworking American citizen, to know that I'm with you as well. It is your voice and your priorities that I am seeking to bolster. I am not interested in picking fights with my fellow candidates. I am interested in working together with you to heal, inspire and revive this great nation that we all love. Please join me now by making a secure donation to my campaign, Carson America. You'll often hear cynics in the Washington political class discount me by saying say, "Dr. Carson has no po...

Barack Obama: I know what's at stake for the parents

Robert -- It's August 28rd. And 70 days from now, I'll either be looking at another four years in the White House -- or the end of this opportunity. I know what's at stake for the parents worrying about health care, the kids who need help to go to college, and the seniors who want a secure retirement. But we're getting outspent by wide margins in critical battleground states -- and what we do about that today could be the difference between winning and losing on November 6th. So as we near one of the last fundraising deadlines of this campaign, I'm asking you to pitch in $3 right now: https://donate.barackobama.com/75-Days Thanks for all you do, Barack

Kshama: Obama ignores us. Mr. Trump Go around the reservations.

Historic Victory at Standing Rock Calls for Celebration and Vigilance For the last eight months, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe has led a historic campaign against the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL), uniting hundreds of tribes, environmentalists, veterans and other activists inspired by their bold stand in defense of native treaty rights and the environment.   On Sunday, millions of people around the world celebrated news that the Army Corps of Engineers had rejected an easement to allow DAPL to go forward. This was an enormous victory for the movement and for ordinary people everywhere in the struggle against Big Oil and naked corporate greed. I congratulate and thank these courageous indigenous people and all others who rallied behind their cause, including the veteran activists who came to strengthen the camp in the days preceding the Army Corps’ ruling. It is these thousands of ordinary people, not the Obama Administration, who deserve praise for this victor...

we’ll have to keep our foot on the gas to build the strongest Democratic Party in history

Image
Donald Trump keeps putting himself first and America last. Even as cases of COVID-19 skyrocket in states across the country, this president continues to host in-person fundraisers to pad his reelection war chest and fund dishonest ads -- including planning to return back to Florida, which is currently battling a sharp increase in cases -- at the end of the month. It’s irresponsible and reckless that Trump is ignoring public health experts and carrying on with his in-person fundraising events, but it's clear there's no level he won't sink to in an attempt to stop Democrats from chipping away at the RNC's cash-on-hand advantage. Here’s the thing, though: Together, we were able to outraise Donald Trump’s fundraising machine two months in a row -- relying heavily on virtual fundraising and grassroots contributions from folks just like you. But in order to compete with him and the RNC, we’ll have to keep our foot on the gas to build the strongest Democratic Party in history ...

Carly: change little, help no one, and fix nothing

Image
Robert, Hillary Clinton gave an economic speech on Monday—where she basically promised to change little, help no one, and fix nothing if she becomes President of the United States. Instead, Hillary wants to offer you and me more of the same: more of the same lousy liberal "solutions" that have been failing the American people for the past 8 years. You know what they say: insanity is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results.  So I think it's safe to say that Hillary's plan to continue the failed economic policies of Barack Obama is, by that definition, insane. After 8 years of Obama, nearly 100 million Americans don't have jobs. Millions more Americans are collecting welfare from the government. And, for years, we've seen more small businesses close their doors than open them. It's an economy that maybe works if you're Hillary Clinton, and you make hundreds of thousands of dollars for a 30 minut...

Tim: committed to repealing the ACA

                                                                     July 18, 2017     About Tim Services Media Center Legislative Work South Carolina Resources Dear Friends, When I was elected to Congress in 2010, along with a record-breaking Freshman class, the major platform was repealing the ACA and the national debt. The debt continues to grow, and the ACA is not getting any better. The former isn’t helped by the latter. In South Carolina, we’re down to one insurer offering plans on the exchanges. We’re seeing triple digit premium hikes, and deductibles through the roof. Millions are paying for insurance they don’t wa...

Ryan: "wait and see mode"

In particular, the CBO has estimated premiums for low income and older residents would climb and, in the case of the Senate bill, that 22 million people would lose insurance. "We think the CBO is only looking at part of the picture, and what they're basically saying is, if you're no...

Bob: put an end to these unfair subsidies

Image
Robert, This makes my blood boil:  Each year, taxpayers spend BILLIONS of dollars subsidizing big oil and gas companies! These companies don’t need taxpayer dollars, period. In 2013 alone, the Big Five oil companies posted profits of $93 BILLION. But that didn’t stop the industry from lining its pockets with BILLIONS of your tax dollars that same year. No wonder the Big Five oil companies were able to pay their CEOs $125 million last year alone. What’s more, even as these often-negligent companies walk away with your hard-earned money, they pollute our air and water, hurting our families and damaging our environment! Remember the BP/Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico? We need to put an end to these unfair subsidies.   Add your name: Tell Congress to stop unfair tax giveaways for Big Oil! The other sad thing is that these loopholes aren’t new. Some of them have been on the books for 100 years! Big Oil companies have had a century of taxpayer mo...

Jason: Confirmation hearings for President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees

Image
Black – Confirmation hearings for President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees began this week. As those get underway, a number of citizens continue to call for the process of selecting America’s newest government leaders to slow down to allow for proper vetting. Thanks to these demands, several hearings have been delayed. Whether you support President-elect Trump’s nominees or not, there is a legal process in place to ensure that leaders at the highest echelons of our government do not have conflicts of interest or other issues that make them unfit for their responsibilities as public servants. Here are some things you can do right now to make your voice heard in this process: Check out ongoing campaigns:  Join others taking action by heading to  this movement page , which captures a variety of asks of President-elect Trump and his incoming administration.
