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

we can’t balance the budget on the backs of hungry kids and veterans.

Robert, This holiday season, we can’t balance the budget on the backs of hungry kids and veterans. But that’s exactly what my opponent, Congressman Tom Cotton, and his reckless colleagues are out to do. The only farm bill they’ll pass cuts $40 billion from food assistance, forcing groups like children, active-duty service members and even veterans who’ve bravely served this nation to go hungry. As one Arkansas official at a food pantry put it, this “just can’t happen.” The cuts are cruel and senseless. We’ve got to speak out now and stop Rep. Cotton from pushing through these rash, irresponsible cuts that put special interests ahead of children and veterans. A vote on the farm bill is coming, so we don’t have much time. Take a moment and speak out for our neighbors in the spirit of the holidays. Click here to demand Congress protect nutrition funding so our children and veterans don’t go hungry. Rep. Cotton and the House ext...

The Alliance: Counter to Obama's Foreign Policy

Image
Dear Friend, The last few days have been incredibly successful for the Alliance for a Strong America. Americans all across the nation are standing with us as we fight back against President Obama's failed policies and the crumbling Obama Doctrine. Recently,  The Washington Post's  Jennifer Rubin published a profile of Vice President Cheney, Liz, and the mission of the Alliance and we thought you'd enjoy giving it a read: Dick and Liz Cheney Act To Counter Obama's Failed Foreign Policy Article Appeared in  The Washington Post , June 18, 2014 By Jennifer Rubin Former vice president Dick Cheney and his daughter Liz have seen quite enough of the Obama administration's foreign policy debacles. Rather than simply take to the airwaves, they have decided to do something about it and about the political environment concerning national security. The Cheneys' press release announces: "the formation and launch of The Alliance for a Strong America, a 501(c)4...

Rob: we’re tired of waiting

Image
Robert L., That’s how long we’ve been waiting for a real transportation bill. Congress has passed 33 short-term extensions of federal highway and transit funding over the past six years. That’s inexcusable. With federal transportation funding set to run out in a matter of days, the House and Senate are nowhere close to agreement on how to end the gridlock, putting us right back in the same position we were in barely two months ago. Tweet at Senate Majority Leader McConnell and House Speaker Boehner and tell them we’re tired of waiting. We need long-term transportation investments that will create jobs and economic growth now. As long as we’re on the brink of bankrupting the Highway Trust Fund every six months or so, we’re missing out on long-term investments that would create good, family-sustaining jobs, reduce traffic jams that worsen air pollution, and ensure a strong economy for our communities and families. Tweet a message to Senate Majority Leader   McConnell an...

When I ran for governor of Georgia in 2018,

Image
  robert, Across this country, Republicans are turning their backs on families and hardworking people – and threatening the very character of our democracy. That's why it's never been more important for Democrats to win back the Senate majority this November. The path to Senate control runs through New Hampshire – but right now, right-wing Republicans are spending millions of dollars to defeat Jeanne Shaheen.  That's why I'm reaching out to you today:   With Senate control at stake, will you give $3 or more before midnight to help Jeanne hit her critical end-of-month goal, defend New Hampshire's Senate seat and take back the Senate for Democrats? When I ran for governor of Georgia in 2018, I witnessed firsthand the GOP's attempts to force Democratic voices into silence. My right-wing opponent did everything he could to prevent thousands of voters from being heard at the ballot box.  As we get closer to the November election, this is happening again across the co...

Colleen: a grand jury has indicted two of the videos’ creators.

Image
Friend, Republicans can’t resist putting women’s private medical decisions front-and-center in our national discourse. So when they saw a deceptively edited Planned Parenthood video last September, we all could have predicted what would happen. Republicans used those videos to justify attempts to withhold Planned Parenthood’s funding and tie up budget talks.  They almost brought our government to a screeching halt. Now, after clearing Planned Parenthood of any wrongdoing,  a grand jury has indicted two of the videos’ creators. They’re facing misdemeanor and felony charges. I’m fighting to get to Congress to protect women’s access to healthcare against extremists who will stop at nothing to take it away. Can you help me get there by giving $5 or $10? The video creators were part of a right-wing, anti-choice group that spent years concocting an elaborate scheme -- complete with a fake company, fake IDs, and fake stories to bait Planned Parenthood employees. Needless to say, ...

Jill: The “Sopranos” state’s 2-party mafia

Image
Dear Friend, I’m just back from the Green Party Annual National Meeting in Newark, NJ, where I endorsed powerhouse Seth Kaper-Dale in his run for Governor.  As one of only two governor races this year, Seth's run in  2017’s biggest election  is a breakthrough moment for Greens everywhere.  The “Sopranos” state’s 2-party mafia is strong-arming Seth into raising $430,000 by August 31st in order to get in to the debates and to receive matching funds. That’s more than four times the $100,000 I had to raise to qualify for federal matching funds in my run for president! It's no wonder they're trying to keep Seth's formidable voice out of the debates. If this giant of social justice is heard, politics will never be the same - and not just in New Jersey. Here's the good news.  We have the power to break their debate blockade by supporting this transformative candidate now . If we can get Seth in to the debates, we Greens can win this high visibility rac...

Patrick: If it's what you say I love it

Image
Robert, Donald Trump Jr.'s emails released yesterday are explicit. The president's son was offered a meeting with a Russian lawyer for information that "would incriminate Hillary" as part of "Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump." Trump Jr. responded:  "If it's what you say I love it" Paul Manafort, then President Trump's campaign chairman, and Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and Senior White House Adviser, joined Trump Jr. for the meeting. This news is deeply disturbing, and only the latest in a series of shifting denials, changed stories, and cascading lies around members of the Trump campaign and administration's contacts with Russia. We all know that the Trump campaign was led by zealots who would stop at nothing to get Trump elected. But it's still shocking to see the actual Trump Jr. emails, and that they would go so far as to knowingly work with an enemy of the United States to influe...

Bob: 22 million

Image
Robert, The Big-Oil Koch brothers’ Americans for Prosperity Super PAC has already spent $22 million this cycle. They’re desperate to take the Senate from Democrats, and three men named Mark are standing in their path. If we’re going to keep the Senate, these are the three men we have to stand beside for reelection. And fast – before the critical March 31 FEC deadline. Senator Mark Warner’s opponent? A political operative for George W. Bush and co-founder of American Crossroads with Karl Rove.  We need to keep Rove and his allies far away from the Senate by supporting Mark now. Senator Mark Udall’s opponent voted to speed up deportations for young students and supported – twice – legislation restricting women’s rights and defining fertilized eggs as people.  With the Republicans in control of the Senate, say goodbye to immigration reform. Help reelect Sen. Udall! Senator Mark Begich is fighting back against the Kochs’ Americans for Prosperity. But right now, they’re...

Madeleine K. Albright: I want you to experience the same southern hospitality that Charlotte has to offer

Dear robert l., Last week, I had the pleasure of visiting Charlotte, North Carolina in my role as Chair of the National Democratic  Institute (NDI). Since 1984, NDI has organized an International Leaders Forum at every Democratic Convention, bringing hundreds of visitors from across the globe to the U.S. to observe our political process. After exploring the city and meeting local residents, it is easy to see why President Obama picked North Carolina to host the 2012 Democratic National Convention. I want you to experience the same southern hospitality that Charlotte has to offer. Whether you come as a delegate or as an observer, you should experience this city during the convention. If you give $5 or whatever you can right now, you will be automatically entered to win free airfare and accommodations for the week of the convention. You will be here on Labor Day for a Celebration of the Carolinas at the Charlotte Motor Speedway and in attendance at Bank of America stadium t...

Ruben: I'm standing

Image
Robert - I deployed to Iraq as a United States Marine in 2005. I cleared houses, fought insurgents, and lost friends. Not too long after I returned, I signed up to serve as VoteVets' Arizona State Captain. When i decided to run for State Representative, VoteVets was there for me. And that support continued through my recent election to the U.S. House of Representatives. My story is not entirely unique: VoteVets has helped elect dozens of veteran leaders at all levels of government. And this year, they face their biggest challenge yet: electing Tammy Duckworth and Jason Kander to the U.S. Senate. I'm standing with VoteVets in that effort, and I hope you'll join me. Make a $5 contribution to VoteVets today. What's more, even after the final vote was counted last November, we've continued to work together on issues like debt-free college and keeping our communities safer from gun violence. When it comes to electing and organizing veterans to advance progressi...
