Dedicated To Restoring Our Government to Citizens' Control

Citizens United

36,000 Jobs Created

Only 36,000 jobs were created in January according to a new jobs report by the Labor Department this morning. That is nowhere near the amount of jobs needed to be created to sustain an economic recovery. President Obama’s policies have not helped get Americans back to work. He has focused on a big government, job killing […]

Senate Democrats – JUST DO NOT GET IT

Senate Democrats rejected the House Republicans’ budget plan yesterday that attempts to reign in the deficit and bring down our $14 trillion debt. House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan’s plan would cut $74 billion from the federal budget. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid called the plan “unworkable” and “draconian.” If Senator Reid hedges on cutting only […]

LETTER TO THE SENATE: Vote to Repeal ObamaCare

Today I sent a letter to the Senate urging them to support the McConnell amendment to the FAA Reauthorization bill repealing Obamacare and to inform them that any votes on Obamacare will be considered for Citizens United’s 2011 Congressional Ratings. Please see our previous vote alert to the House of Representatives on Obamacare here. Citizens […]

Senate To Vote On Repealing Obamacare

The Senate may vote on repealing Obamacare as soon as today. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has just introduced an amendment to the FAA Reauthorization Bill that has the backing of all 47 members of the Republican Conference. It will be very telling to see which Senate Democrats vote for or against Obamacare. Unfortunately, the amendment […]

“Journalists” Partying with Obama

Linda Douglass – former ABC news reporter, turned White House Obamacare spokesperson, turned Atlantic Media vice president – hosted a party this past weekend for out-going Obama senior staffer David Axelrod. Many reporters and Obama Administration officials showed up, as well as President Obama himself, to the highbrow party in Georgetown. The commingling of journalists and […]

Jim Meyers covers our Reagan-Obama video in Newsmax: The conservative organization Citizens United has launched a video in response to a new Time magazine cover story comparing President Barack Obama with Ronald Reagan, with the point: “There is no comparison.” The video contrasts several Reagan statements against those of Obama, including: Reagan: “It is time […]

Florida Federal Judge Declares Obamacare Unconstitutional

A second federal judge has declared Obamacare unconstitutional. Coming off the heels of last month’s Virginia decision, Florida District Court Judge Roger Vinson said in his ruling that Obamacare should be “declared void.” In reaching his decision Judge Vinson noted that “Because the individual mandate is unconstitutional and not severable, the entire Act must be declared […]

RedState: Reagan and Obama – NO COMPARISON

CU President David Bossie introduces the web ad “Reagan and Obama – NO COMPARISON” on RedState: Time Magazine is out this week with a photoshopped cover of President Ronald Reagan with his arm around President Barack Obama. This manipulated image is as outrageous as it is factually dishonest. Both men may share the same title, […]

The Truth About Obamacare Trickles Out

For the last two years, the Obama Administration has said that Obamacare will bring down health care costs. On Wednesday, the Chief Medicare Actuary – the one person who should know – told the House Budget Committee that it was mainly false to say that Obamacare will save the government money. Of course, the mainstream media […]

Social Security Crossing A Rubicon

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released startling information today about the viability of Social Security. CBO believes that Social Security will continue to run on deficits until the year 2037 when there will be no money left to fund the entitlement program. This will no doubt have a significant impact on our $14 trillion debt – […]
