Team Kentucky

  Friends,   My heart goes out to the families in Western Kentucky affected by the tornado and storms this weekend. It’s heartbreaking to consider the devastation to our communities, and especially during the holidays.    If you’re looking for …

Stacey Abrams is exactly the kind of person we need in office

  Friends,   I want to tell you how thrilled I am that Stacey Abrams is running again for governor of Georgia.    We started Honor Bound with people like Stacey in mind — women leaders who’ve dedicated so much of their careers to service. And s…

URGENT: Corporate money is flooding back into Republican coffers

  Team,    The GOP cash advantage in next year’s Senate elections is now 2-to-1.    It’s one reason why the Cook Political Report shifted its forecasts toward Republicans in three key races. And when you take a peek under the hood, you get a di…

Our mission is simple: Don’t let them get away with it
