In the wake of another horrific mass shooting, vulnerable freshman Republican John James remains silent. James has received over $260,000 in campaign contributions and more than $358,000 in outside spending from the gun industry over the course of his political career. In return, James advocates for more guns in our schools, opposes common sense background checks, and refuses to offer real […]

This week, Lori Chavez-DeRemer voted to elect far-right extremist Rep. Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House, known best for pioneering the push for a nationwide total abortion ban, leading the effort to slash Social Security and Medicare as chair of the Republican Study Committee, and acting as “the most important architect of the Electoral College objections.” Chavez-DeRemer, who has […]

Mariannette Miller-Meeks is doubling down on her support for extremist Mike Johnson, praising him as “respectful of others.” Johnson’s so-called “respectful” record includes cheering on calls for doctors’ imprisonment with hard labor for performing abortions, leading efforts to slash seniors’ hard-earned Social Security and Medicare as the chair of the Republican Study Committee, and calling for criminalizing same-sex relationships.

On his first official day as Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson was caught on video fleeing a reporter asking two simple questions: “Do you believe the 2020 election was stolen… yes or no?” “Do you intend to pursue a national abortion ban as Speaker?” His response? Silence. Thankfully, we have the receipts demonstrating Johnson’s long history of […]
