  • Amy Coney Barrett
    Post-Hearing Analysis: Amy Coney Barrett Introduction After President Trump nominated Amy Coney Barrett, Alliance for Justice issued our report. Reviewing her record, it was clear that if Barrett is confirmed, the American people will suffer grave harm. Millions will lose their health insurance. The clock will be turned back on critical rights and legal protections. Her record overwhelmingly demonstrates that she would be an extreme member of the Court and would implement the dangerous agenda of President Trump and the Republican Party. This week, Amy Coney Barrett’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee only confirmed and reinforced our prior conclusions. When pressed regarding Trump’s litmus tests — and her own record — she was evasive, misleading, and even contemptuous. She was visibly annoyed that senators had the gall to probe her record and views. She chastised senators for asking questions she decided she would not answer. She failed to turn over key documents to the Senate.. She famously held up a blank notepad, proudly displaying she had taken no notes; an apt metaphor for how she went out of her way not to address the very real concerns and fears millions of people have with her nomination. Republican senators spent the hearings trying to downplay the stakes and pretend that they were only interested in judges who will neutrally and without bias apply the law. Ted Cruz once asked a previous Trump nominee — who he later forced to withdraw — what that judge had ever done to advance the conservative cause. Yet, over days of hearing, Republicans tried to pretend they weren’t pushing an agenda.

  • Omnibus June 2019 Dem Primary
    Democratic Dividing Lines Verified Voter Omnibus Survey N=484 Democrats or Democratic leaners June 22 - June 25, 2019 !X!1 Key Findings • Biden’s lead among 24 announced Democratic candidates has narrowed by 6-points since May to 32% of the Democratic vote. • Biden’s 6-point drop came with a concurrent 6-point gain by Elizabeth Warren to 11% of the Democratic vote, or 4- points behind Bernie Sanders who takes 15% of the Democratic vote. • Biden continues to lead both Sanders and Warren in head to head match-ups, but his lead has narrowed to 30-points from both Sanders and Warren, down from 36-points ahead of Sanders and 47-points ahead of Warren in May. • 73% of Democrats plan to watch the debates, or coverage of the debates. Ahead of the kickoff of tonight’s debates, we tested Democratic concern about two recent pieces of news about Biden — his flip flopping on the Hyde Amendment’s impact on access to abortion, and past associations with segregationists. • We found the Hyde Amendment resonates more strongly with Democratic voters, with 39% of Democrats concerned about Biden’s stance on the Hyde Amendment, and 22% concerned about his associations with segregationists. • Particularly concerned are women, African Americans, younger voters, and more educated voters. !2 Methodology • Using a voter file-matched online panel, we surveyed n=1,006 registered voters across the country from June 22 to June 25, 2019, with a sample of 484 Democrats or Democratic-leaning Independents. • With our third monthly tracking survey of 2019, we were able to confirm the voting history of participants and track changes in the attitudes and behaviors of key 2020 voters since our last survey of verified Democratic or Democratic-leaning Independent voters from May 20 to May 21, 2019.

Elizabeth Warren has joined former Vice President Joe Biden at the front of the pack in New Hampshire, according to the latest Monmouth University Poll. She has taken support from both Biden and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders since Monmouth’s first poll of the state’s Democratic contest this past spring. The poll also finds that most primary voters say they prioritize electability over issue alignment, but seem to feel they are not actually forced to make that choice when it comes down to it. Among registered New Hampshire Democrats and unaffiliated voters who are likely to participate in the February 2020 Democratic primary, 27% currently support Warren and 25% support Biden. The only other candidates in double digits are Sanders at 12% and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg at 10%. Others with measurable support are California Sen. Kamala Harris (3%), New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker (2%), Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (2%), Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar (2%), former hedge fund manager Tom Steyer (2%), and entrepreneur Andrew Yang (2%). The remaining 10 candidates included in the poll earn 1% or less. Compared to Monmouth’s prior New Hampshire poll, which was in May, Warren’s support has grown by 19 points (from 8%) while Biden’s has dropped by 11 points (from 36%).

  • CNN 2020 New Hampshire Primary Poll
    CNN 2020 NH Primary Poll CNN 2020 New Hampshire Primary Poll These findings are based on the latest CNN 2020 New Hampshire Primary Poll, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. Seven hundred five (705) randomly selected New Hampshire adults were interviewed in English by landline and cellular telephone between February 6 and February 9, 2020. The margin of sampling error for the survey is +/- 3.7 percent. Included in the sample were 365 likely 2020 Democra c Primary voters (margin of sampling error +/- 5.1 percent) and 212 likely 2020 Republican Primary voters (margin of sampling error +/- 6.7 percent). Trend points prior to July 2019 reflect results from the Granite State Poll, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. The random sample used in the CNN 2020 New Hampshire Primary Poll was purchased from Scien fic Telephone Samples (STS), Rancho Santo Margarita, CA. STS screens each selected telephone number to eliminate non-working numbers, disconnected numbers, and business numbers to improve the efficiency of the sample, reducing the amount of me interviewers spend calling non-usable numbers. When a landline number is reached, the interviewer randomly selects a member of the household by asking to speak with the adult currently living in the household who has had the most recent birthday. This selec on process ensures that every adult (18 years of age or older) in the household has an equal chance of being included in the survey. The data have been weighted to adjust for numbers of adults and telephone lines within households.

  • Biden Is Only Leading Dem to Top Trump in Ohio, Quinnipiac University Poll Finds; Former V.P
    Peter A. Brown, Assistant Director (203) 535-6203 Rubenstein Pat Smith (212) 843-8026 FOR RELEASE: JULY 25, 2019 BIDEN IS ONLY LEADING DEM TO TOP TRUMP IN OHIO, QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY POLL FINDS; FORMER V.P. HAS BIG LEAD IN DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY Former Vice President Joseph Biden leads President Donald Trump 50 – 42 percent in the critical swing state of Ohio, the only leading Democratic candidate to top the Republican incumbent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. The other leading Democratic contenders each are locked in a dead heat with President Trump, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds: 46 percent for Trump to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders with 45 percent; Trump at 46 percent to Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 45 percent; 44 – 44 percent between Trump and California Sen. Kamala Harris; 44 – 44 percent between Trump and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg; 44 percent for Trump to 43 percent for New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker. Women, black voters and independent voters give Biden his lead in the matchup with Trump. Biden leads 53 – 40 percent among women, as men are split with 46 percent for Biden and 45 percent for Trump. White voters are divided, with 48 percent for Trump and 45 percent for Biden. Black voters go Democratic 84 – 8 percent. Independent voters go to Biden 55 – 32 percent. Republicans back Trump 86 – 10 percent as Biden leads 96 – 2 percent among Democrats. “Former Vice President Joseph Biden calls himself a blue-collar guy. With Ohio certainly a blue-collar state, it is no surprise he is the Democrat who runs best against President Donald Trump and is solidly ahead in the Democratic primary in the Buckeye State,” said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

  • March 18, 2020 Senator Elizabeth Warren United States Senate 309
    March 18, 2020 Senator Elizabeth Warren United States Senate 309 Hart Senate Office Building Washington, DC 20510 Dear Senator Warren: On behalf of the Massachusetts Medical Society, representing over 25,000 physicians, residents, and medical students in the Commonwealth, I write to thank you for your letter urging Secretary Azar and Assistant Secretary Kadlec to respond to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health’s request for personal protective equipment (PPE) from the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS). Massachusetts is currently facing an imminent, dire shortage of PPE, posing a substantial risk to our front-line health care workers and impeding the medical community’s collective ability to effectively respond to the crisis. While we greatly appreciate the diligent efforts of our Massachusetts Department of Public Health, the shortage of PPE is becoming a critical threat, especially as hospitalizations for COVID-19 patients have increased dramatically, in some instances quadrupling overnight. It’s not just hospital systems that are facing shortages. The Medical Society continues to receive increasingly distressed inquiries from smaller physician practices as well. In one such instance, a small physician practice on the North Shore has the testing capability to address high demand for testing among sick patients but is down to three N95 masks. Because of this shortage in PPE, this practice is not able to maximally utilize the test kits they possess while also keeping their staff safe from potential exposure. While meaningful efforts have been made to preserve existing supplies, through expansion of the use of telehealth and mandated cancellation of non-essential elective procedures, additional PPE will no doubt remain critical.

  • The Fourteen-Billion-Dollar Election Emerging Campaign Finance Trends and Their Impact on the 2020 Presidential Race and Beyond
    12 The Fourteen-Billion-Dollar Election Emerging Campaign Finance Trends and their Impact on the 2020 Presidential Race and Beyond Michael E. Toner and Karen E. Trainer The 2020 presidential and congressional election was the most expensive election in American history, shattering previous fundraising and spending records. Total spending on the 2020 election totaled an estimated $14 bil- lion, which was more than double the amount spent during the 2016 cycle and more than any previous election in U.S. history. 1 The historic 2020 spending tally was more than was spent in the previous two election cycles combined.2 Moreover, former Vice President Joseph Biden and Senator Kamala Harris made fundraising history in 2020 as their presidential campaign became the first campaign in history to raise over $1 billion in a single election cycle, with a total of $1.1 billion.3 For their part, President Trump and Vice Presi- dent Pence raised in excess of $700 million for their presidential campaign, more than double the amount that they raised in 2016.4 The record amount of money expended on the 2020 election was also fu- eled by a significant increase in spending by outside groups such as Super PACs as well as enhanced congressional candidate fundraising. Political party expenditures increased in 2020, but constituted a smaller share of total electoral spending. Of the $14 billion total, approximately $6.6 billion was spent in connection with the presidential race and $7.2 billion was expended at the congressional level.5 To put those spending amounts into perspective, the $7.2 billion tally at the congressional level nearly equals the GDP of Monaco.6 More than $1 billion of the $14 billion was spent for online advertising on platforms such as Facebook and Google.7 203 204 Michael E.

Schumer Senate Majority Leader Senate Minority Leader Room S-230, U.S. Capitol Room S-221, U.S. Capitol Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Richard Shelby The Honorable Patrick Leahy Chairman Vice Chairman Senate Appropriations Committee Senate Appropriations Committee Room S-128, U.S. Capitol Room S-128, U.S. Capitol Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Leader McConnell, Leader Schumer, Chairman Shelby, and Vice Chairman Leahy: As Congress considers additional relief in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we urge you to prioritize nutrition programs for older adults. Specifically, we request that the next COVID-19 relief package include $1.1 billion in funding for Older Americans Act (OAA) programs, including $750 million for OAA Nutrition Services, which critically support the delivery of nutritious meals to older adults throughout the country. The COVID-19 pandemic is disproportionately impacting older adults. With the closure of congregate meal sites and the steep increase in newly homebound older adults, there is now a higher demand for OAA Programs, such as Home Delivered Meals and other community-based supportive services. According to the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging (n4a), 93 percent of Area Agencies on Aging (AAA) have reported serving more clients since the pandemic began, and 69 percent of AAAs saw an increase in demand for their supportive services. In addition, Meals on Wheels America members are serving an average of 77 percent more meals to 47 percent more seniors since March, with virtually all programs having seen the cost of providing services increase.
