Join us for a Super Tuesday recap

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, For a long time now you have heard me preach about the need for long term investments in the South. I remain convinced that there are so many opportunities in the changing South that progressive voices are not capitalizing on. That is why I am excited t…

Another flip in New York

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, You saw what we could do when we came together and went all-in to win back a seat from MAGA. Tom Suozzi flipped NY-03 with your help. And more importantly, we saw the blueprint -- call out MAGA extremism on women's freedoms and attack their utter failur…

What's happening in Alabama will happen everywhere if we don't act

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, I'm shocked and sickened at the Alabama Supreme Court's ruling -- declaring that frozen embryos are considered children. Led by a Chief Justice who is a Roy Moore protégé, they've basically ruled that frozen embryos in test tubes have more rights than w…

It’s time to take back a House seat (that George Santos held)

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, Last week I sent you an e-mail about donating to Tom Suozzi, but this week has me even more motivated. If MAGA face planting on their impeachment attempt on Tuesday didn’t convince you how important electing Tom Suozzi next week is, I don’t know what wi…

It’s time to take back a House seat (that George Santos held)

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, In less than two weeks, we have a very important election. It’s an election that will determine if New York’s Third District will move past its MAGA mistake or if it will continue on the legacy of George Santos. The choice seems pretty clear, right? In…

Help us set our 2024 agenda

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, Just like that, we’re in another election year. And an unbelievably important one. The name “Right Side of History” has never meant more than it does in 2024. Aside from the presidential election, there are tons of other important races happening around…

We need to keep Jon Tester in the Senate

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, The state of Montana, and really, the entire country could use another 6 years of Jon Tester in the Senate. Not to mention, this is one of the critical swing seats that will decide the entire Senate. That’s why I’m reaching out today to make sure you’re…

Where you can make an impact next year

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, We all know that the 2024 election is going to be the most consequential of our lifetime. You better believe I’m going to be doing everything I can do to keep Trump away from the White House. But as we wrap up 2023, I’ve got three races down ballot tha…

Even the GOP is fed up with Tuberville

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, While the United States continues to support the fight against autocracy in Ukraine and Gaza, Tuberville continues his mindless assault on our U.S. military; denying promotions to hundreds of military officers. If you have followed me in the media and …

Historic news: A second Congressional seat in Alabama is in reach

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, I’ve got some real exciting news for you. A federal court has chosen a new congressional map for Alabama. This map is based on the principle of one person, one vote. It will enfranchise tens of thousands of Black Alabamians. The map also turns Alabama’…

A major win for democracy in Alabama!

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, The Supreme Court just rejected the Alabama GOP’s congressional map. They affirmed what we’ve known all along. The extremists in my home state are hell-bent on suppressing the voting power of Black Alabamians. The decision today marked the final defeat…

Tommy Tuberville's un-American assault on the military

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, The Senate may be in recess now, but Tommy Tuberville packed up and went home fully intent on continuing his un-American assault on the military. For 147 days now, Tuberville has held up the promotions of generals and flag officers in all branches of ou…

Tuberville's war on women

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, By now, you know about Tommy Tuberville’s one-person hold on Senate confirmation of all generals and flag officers in our military. It’s shocking that we don’t have a confirmed Marine Commandant for more than a century. But the damage to our military go…

Another major victory for voting rights

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, A couple of weeks ago, I told you that the decision in the Supreme Court’s Alabama redistricting case was a seismic shift that would reverberate throughout the South. Now, I’m so pleased to say that we’re seeing the consequences of that decision.   B…

A Seismic Decision From SCOTUS: 4 new toss-up races in the South

Since 1978

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, In 1978, while busting it as a second year law student, I met a young, first-term Senator from Delaware. To say that he made a lasting impression is an understatement. I had a feeling then what I know to be true now – that Joe Biden would one day not o…

The outrageous assault on democracy in Tennessee

Rally for Medicaid expansion in Alabama

Operation 147 PAC     Folks, There’s a whole host of nonsensical and downright cruel policy positions the Alabama GOP has adopted over the years. But the one I struggle to wrap my head around the most is why they refuse to expand Medicaid in the state. Y’all know I’ve been a big su…

good grief
