\"SteveSteve King has been about a lot of racist crap during his tenure as a congressman, but when he shook hands with white supremacist Peter Brimelow at the Conservative Political Action Conference back in February, that was. And he’s vulnerable this election year.<\/p>\n

 This year’s races are on, and we\u2019re ready to jump in. Starting now, we are rolling out our first set of endorsements and choosing our targets for November. We are going to win this year, and we want you to be part of our victory.<\/b><\/p>\n

Our top target this November is Rep. Steve King from Iowa<\/b>. His incendiary remarks against immigrants are well documented (you may remember him comparing immigrants to livestock, and calling for an electric border fence), and he’s perhaps the single most anti-immigrant politician on the national stage.<\/p>\n

We want him gone, and we’re going to win<\/b>. He’s in a new, moderate district, and is facing the race of his life from Iowa’s former First Lady, Christie Vilsack, who will be an advocate for sensible immigration reforms that restore America as a welcoming beacon.

Today, we are writing a check for the Vilsack campaign, and we want you to help us decide the amount. Donate now, and we’ll use the money to beat Steve King.<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Early support makes a huge difference in elections, and we want to make sure that Christie Vilsack knows that we’ve got her back.<\/p>\n

Better yet \u2013 we want to make sure that Steve King knows we’re coming after him. We will hold him accountable for his actions. We will make sure Iowa’s working families know just how out-of-touch he is. And we will win.<\/p>\n

It’s time<\/b>. Help us make a statement today: donate $15 now, and let’s defeat Steve King<\/a>.<\/p>\n
