Patrick Reynolds, President Congress Majority PAC                Ilene Proctor & Associates patrick2@congressmajority.org                                                     ilenepr@sbcglobal.net About Patrick Reynolds   Patrick Reynolds’ advocacy work and motivational talks to youth and adults have made him a well-known and respected champion of a smokefree society. He has helped remind many thousands of people of the dangers of smoking. Patrick watched his father, RJ Reynolds, Jr., his oldest brother RJ Reynolds III, and other members of his family die from cigarette-induced emphysema and lung cancer. Concerned about the mounting health evidence, he made the decision to speak out against the industry his family helped build. He founded Tobaccofree Earth in 1989. Its mission is to motivate youth to stay tobaccofree and to empower smokers to quit successfully. Reynolds saw that having Democrats in the majority in Congress would bring progress not only on tobacco policy, but also on climate change, gun control, abortion, immigration reform, and other issues. In 2018 Reynolds started Congress Majority PAC with a mission of getting Democrats elected to Congress. “Each of our ads focus on one issue,” he continues. Our ad on the economy compares the Administrations of Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump and Biden, and our ads on immigration and climate change compare the Parties’ voting records on those issues. All conclude, Vote Democrat, and mention no candidate by name, so our ads can be run in any State,” Reynolds said. Congress Majority PAC produces hard-hitting political ads that challenge Donald Trump and failed Republican policies while making a clear, affirmative case for Democratic leadership. Every ad ends the same way: Vote Democrat. Its ads can run in any state and in any congressional race, helping Democratic candidates compete in key districts from coast to coast.

    Election Truth Alliance Expert Shares Findings On U.S. Fraud Claims

    The “District Insiders” podcast hosted elections expert Nathan Taylor to address growing concerns about the fairness of recent U.S. elections and threats to midterms Washington, DC — Nathan Taylor, a cybersecurity professional with the non-partisan, non-profit Election Truth Alliance (ETA), shared on the most recent edition of the District Insiders podcast his analysis of recent and forthcoming U.S. elections security issues. District Insider hosts Andrew Kreig and Wayne Madsen, reporters who have covered election rigging scandals for more than a decade, explored with Taylor, right, what the public most needs to understand about recent allegations about illegal or suspected election manipulation in U.S. elections. Taylor’s concern is that top state elections officials from across the United States often avoid reviewing evidence of suspicious vote tabulation results illustrating irregularities. A further problem, he adds, is that private contractors often obtain contracts from officials due to questionable relationships and potential lobbying and bribes, and these companies often obscure their ownership and top management. which hinders oversight of who owns the systems that count the public’s votes. Even so, the ETA has documented significant problems with election security. Taylor points to the ETA’s recent litigation in Pennsylvania as an illustration of procedural gaps identified in a key 2024 swing state. With the stakes rarely higher than this year’s U.S. elections, Taylor invited support via ETA’s website to join ETA’s all-volunteer efforts that include research, events and other outreach to protect local communities and democracy.
