  • DNC Response to Governor Christie at RNC Meeting

    Earlier today, Governor Christie spoke at a closed-press RNC meeting in Boston. While the theme of the RNC meeting is “Making it Happen” it’s clear that what Christie’s doing in New Jersey it isn’t working. “From economic growth to education funding and supporting women’s health programs, Chris Christie doesn’t have a record to run on – it’s a record to run from,” said DNC National Press Secretary Michael Czin. “The RNC wants to talk about ‘Making it Happen’ but at every level of government their policies are failing middle class Americans. From Republicans in Congress’ unwillingness to support commonsense immigration reform with a path to citizenship to Governor Christie’s abysmal record of job creation – the Republican Party is failing to lay out a positive vision that will help ensure a better bargain for middle class Americans.

  • GOP’s Outreach to Women in the Month of July - Another Month, Same Old Party

    Since their electoral defeats at the national and state level last November, the GOP has spent a lot of time talking about rebranding their party and expanding their base to constituencies like women, who fled their party in droves.

  • This Week in the GOP’s Outreach to Women

    Earlier this year, the RNC released an Autopsy Report on the party’s failings in 2012 where they pledged to change their ways and reach out to groups, like women, that they had alienated by the party’s rhetoric and policies. Their report stated that the Party needs to develop “a forward-leaning vision for voting Republican that appeals to women [and demonstrate] that our policies, principles and vision address the concerns of female voters.” How’s that effort coming?

  • Priebus Highlights Autopsy’s Failure; Goes All-In for Cuccinelli, Jackson & Extreme Policies

    A little more than 100 days ago Reince Priebus and Republicans rolled out their “GOP Autopsy” to explain how they were going to win back voters who were alienated by the Republican Party’s policies and rhetoric. Today, NBC News noted that “Republicans have pretty much ignored that RNC “autopsy” report.” To mark the failure of the GOP’s report, today Priebus will campaign in Virginia for Ken Cuccinelli and E.W. Jackson, a Republican ticket that has alienated many Virginians, including the LGBT community, immigrants, and women with dangerous legislation and inflammatory rhetoric.

  • From State Houses to Congress, GOP Renews Assault on Women’s Health

    Yesterday, Republican Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett took the unnecessary step of signing a bill into law that bans abortion coverage in the state’s health insurance marketplace. Corbett doesn’t seem to mind that “there’s already language in the federal law that prevents the mingling of private and public funds for abortion services.” It’s clear that Corbett would rather spend his time passing unnecessary legislation attacking women’s health choices than working on the economic challenges his state faces. (Take a look at this new DGA memo chronicling GOP Governors’ recent attacks on women’s health.)
