Putting this video together for Congressman John Larson meant a lot to us. But I don’t think you have to be from Connecticut to see how connected John is with his roots and his district’s concerns. Like Karen says in the video: “It’s sincere, and it’s honest.”
Dear Illinois 10, Primary day is 2 weeks away. Let’s send Ilya Sheyman to Congress. He’s the only true progressive in the race - and someone I’ve never felt more proud of to work for.
Make no doubt about it - Ilya IS the future of the party. From Politico:
“A combative House primary in a northern Chicago suburb is being framed as a battle for the future of the Democratic party.
In one corner are national progressive groups, Howard Dean, Russ Feingold and The Nation magazine. In the other, are House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, the chair of the party’s recruiting effort, a slate of local and county elected officials and The Chicago Tribune.”
Whose side are you on?
Check out this video from yesterday’s House Oversight Committee hearing. Not only does Elizabeth Warren give an incredibly inspiring response to the purpose of the CFPB, but Rep. Jim Cooper really calls out the Republicans on the committee who have been attacking her nonstop on behalf of Wall Street and big banks.
Urge the White House to nominate Warren to be the first chair of the CFPB - sign these petitions from CREDO Action/PCCC and Change.org now!
Today, we’re launching the website for State Rep. William Tong, who’s running for the U.S. Senate from Connecticut.
This is a campaign that means a lot to us. Not only is William impressive and raised more than $550,000 in his first quarter as an official candidate, he’s the current chair of the House Banking Committee and stands to be the first Asian-American elected to the U.S. Senate from the continental United States in 35 years.
Contribute to William’s campaign today and help us make history.

An incredible ad supporting Wisconsin public employees from Jim and Aaron. Easily ranks as one of the best pieces of work we’ve produced to date. Inspiring stuff.
Forgot to plug this on Tumblr. Amy Gershkoff of Changing Targets Media and I wrote about the future of political advertising re: television vs. online in the Huffington Post.
I learned early from a school of political consultants to not put yourself out there that much. Focus on the clients. So if I do write something, it’s because I feel like it’s important and because I’m frankly pretty upset. Here’s my piece in the Boston Globe on how both parties used offensive Chinese-American stereotypes in attack ads against China.
My bottom line: Attacking China is fair game, using Chinese-American stereotypes to attack China is NOT fair game.
