Bobby: President of the Senate Pence made the right decision


Great news! Our efforts supporting Betsy DeVos were successful. The Senate voted this afternoon to confirm her as Secretary of Education.

Secretary DeVos will support equal opportunity in education for children across the United States. Our videos highlighted her dedication to giving families educational choices for their students.

This will not be the last battle in this fight, but it was a great win.

Will you support us as we continue to fight for conservative principles and win the war of ideas that's being waged in Washington and across the country?

This is important work, and we need your support. Please chip in $15, $50, or even $100 or more today.

Thank you,

Governor Bobby Jindal

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

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...

Tammy is a true trailblazer. She’s a combat Veteran,

Image
    Hi -- Democrats' majority in the Senate is incredibly thin, which means we need to protect every seat if we want to keep making progress on issues like infrastructure, climate change and more. My friend Tammy Duckworth is up for reelection next year, and I could use your help to make sure she stays in the Senate. Will you split a donation between Tammy and me today? If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately and be split between Amy Klobuchar and Tammy Duckworth: DONATE $5 DONATE $25 DONATE $50 DONATE $100 DONATE ANOTHER AMOUNT Tammy is a true trailblazer. She’s a combat Veteran, a mother who was the first senator to give birth while serving in office, and a fierce advocate for working parents, our Veterans and troops as well as for environmental justice. But national Republicans think they can win her seat and what’s more, they’re already targeting her. I want you to think about everything we've achie...

Take our Budget Priorities Survey to let Adam know what you want Democrats fighting for in the weeks ahead.

Image
  Friend — Voters, supporters, and organizers across the country elected our Democratic majorities and President Biden to force change. To rebuild our economy, save our planet from the climate crisis, and rescue our democracy from the abuses of an authoritarian cult of personality surrounding the former president. Mitch McConnell should not get to decide which bills Congress passes in this once-in-a-generation opportunity to carry out that mandate. So while the Senate negotiates a bipartisan infrastructure deal, we need to make sure that the budget reconciliation package — which can pass with 50 Democratic votes — includes robust investments not only in roads, tunnels, and bridges but also in families and workers. Take our Budget Priorities Survey to let Adam know what you want Democrats fighting for in the weeks ahead.   Team Schiff Budget Priorities Survey TAKE THE SURVEY The reconciliation package is a critical opportunity to address climate change, expand Medicare, invest ...

Scott: send in the U.S. Navy SEALs.

Friend – When a job calls for the very best,  they send in the U.S. Navy SEALs.  Taking the fight to Washington D.C.  and replacing the failed leadership that has brought us ISIS and Obamacare will require nothing less.

Chuy: Rahm cut the budget

Image
Dear robert-- Two weeks ago, we asked Chicagoans to share their stories of real life under Rahm's administration. The response was overwhelming. Dozens and dozens of people told us about difficulties they've experienced due to failed policies and wrong priorities. Now, we are asking you to pick the story that should be made into a video. With the authors’ permission, we've selected three stories that reflect concerns common for many people: Pick a story and chip-in $10, $20, or more, to cover the costs of making a video and promoting it widely. If a story collects $5,000, we can proceed with production.  Debra's story: Both of our two daughters are Special Ed kids and take buses to school. Our older daughter has severe cerebral palsy. If there is no bus aide, she is unable to ride the bus to school.  Rahm cut the budget for both bus aides  and classroom aides… Read the full story and then chip-in $10 to make it a video > Maribel...

Tim Waltz: I wanted Black Independents to hear it first

Image
      Black Independents, I wanted you to hear it from me first:  I’m running to continue serving as Governor of Minnesota. Here in Minnesota, we’ve cut child poverty, expanded labor rights, invested in education, made sure every student gets free breakfast and lunch at school, and so much more.  We’re putting people first — and giving folks the freedom to live their own lives the way they want to live them. But team , everything we’re building is under attack. Donald Trump and his fellow extremists are dismantling basic services like Social Security and Medicare, leaving working families behind, and threatening our freedoms.  That’s why I’m running — because we’ve got a lot more work to do, and I’m sure as hell not going to let MAGA extremists flip this state red. Will you stand with me and split a donation between my campaign and Adam Schiff to show that we are fired up and ready to win? Republicans want to gut your benefits and hand out tax breaks to bil...
