MT. HOLLY, N.J.
– The Republican-affiliated American Action Network went up with trolling billboards this week in 12 House districts where Democrats are fighting like hell to keep schools closed for in-person instruction. One of the targeted congressman is Andy Kim (D, NJ-03).
“Kids are falling behind, yet liberals in Congress seem not to care,” said AAN President Dan Conston. “Even though the science shows it’s safe for children to return to school, teachers unions continue to keep students locked out of their classrooms. Liberals in Congress awash in teacher union cash are picking the unions over America’s kids. It’s time for Congress to support safely reopening schools now.”
An outside group that backs Republican causes is going up in 12 congressional districts controlled by House Democrats with ads spotlighting the combustible issue of school reopenings amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Pennsylvania Reps. Susan Wild and Matt Cartwright are on a list of 47 congressional districts across the country that the National Republican Congressional Committee believes could flip in the 2022 midterm elections.

The real money behind the politicians who voted to overturn the election
These Republican politicians would go on to use the “Big Lie” of alleged voter fraud as an excuse to overturn a valid, democratic election that didn’t go their way.
In the days following the deadly Capitol insurrection by white supremacists, QAnon adherents, and other Donald Trump supporters, media outlets including the Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) have reported on the corporate PACs behind campaign donations that helped elect the scores of Republican House and Senate members who, just hours after the insurrection, voted to reject President Joe Biden’s victories in multiple states. In response, many of these companies have pledged to halt donations to the election deniers or pause campaign donations altogether.
