  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 9, 2014 the Centrist Project Voice
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 9, 2014 The Centrist Project Voice Endorses Susan Collins, Larry Pressler, Michelle Nunn, Greg Orman and Jill Bossi for U.S. Senate Candidates Focused on Core Issues of Broad Importance to Americans Washington, DC — The Centrist Project Voice, the nation’s first political action committee supporting candidates ready to set aside partisan politics and focus on the core issues of critical importance to all Americans, today announced that it has endorsed the following candidates running for U.S. senate seats this fall: Susan Collins of Maine, Larry Pressler of South Dakota, Michelle Nunn of Georgia, Greg Orman of Kansas, and Jill Bossi of South Carolina. "The Centrist Project Voice is pleased to be able to support Susan Collins, Larry Pressler, Michelle Nunn, Greg Orman, and Jill Bossi in their bids to serve the American people by focusing on the critical and mainstream issues that face our country," said Centrist Project Founder Charles Wheelan, a senior lecturer and policy fellow at the Rockefeller Center at Dartmouth College and the bestselling author of Naked Economics. "Each of these candidates embody the Centrist Principles, (fiscal responsibility, environmental stewardship, social tolerance, economic opportunity and a pragmatic approach to solving core policy challenges) as being the bedrock for how to approach public policy matters in the Senate in order to break the partisan deadlock that grips Congress and move America forward." "Our nation needs different kinds of leaders—people [who] will fight to end the point scoring and political bickering that is going on right now in Washington," Nunn said. "We need more leaders who will bring common-sense and a collaborative sensibility to our broken political process." “We are on the verge of something truly historic,” said Larry Pressler.

    The Honorable Debbie Stabenow The Honorable Pat Roberts Ranking Member Chairman U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry Nutrition and Forestry United States Senate – Michigan United States Senate – Kansas Hart SOB, Washington, DC 20510 Hart SOB Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Collin Peterson The Honorable Mike Conaway Ranking Member Chairman House Committee on Agriculture House Committee on Agriculture United States House of Representatives – United States House of Representatives – Minnesota – 7th Texas – 11th RHOB, Washington, DC 20515 RHOB, Washington, DC 20515 Dear Mr. Chairman, Ranking Member Stabenow, Mr. Chairman and Ranking Member Peterson: Last week, House and Senate conference committee members convened to begin deliberations on the final provisions contained in the 2018 Farm Bill. In an August letter addressed to House and Senate Committee leadership, California’s anti-hunger community urged all conference committee members to protect and strengthen the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and oppose any provisions that cut or reduce aid to the 40 million Americans, including the 4 million Californians, who use SNAP to put food on the table and make ends meet. Over the last year, California’s anti-hunger community has consistently advocated for a strong, unified Farm Bill that addresses hunger for our nation’s low-income communities, reauthorizes vital food and farming programs, and strengthens essential anti-hunger programs like SNAP. We believe that the final conference report should reflect the Senate’s approach to strengthen and invest in SNAP and reject the House bill (H.R.2) which would worsen hunger and hardship by taking food benefits from 2 million Americans, including working families, children, seniors and other vulnerable populations.

  • Races for Senate and Governor Tightening in Kansas
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 13, 2014 INTERVIEWS: Tom Jensen 919-744-6312 IF YOU HAVE BASIC METHODOLOGICAL QUESTIONS, PLEASE E-MAIL [email protected], OR CONSULT THE FINAL PARAGRAPH OF THE PRESS RELEASE Races for Senate and Governor Tightening in Kansas Raleigh, N.C. – PPP's newest Kansas poll finds the races for both the Senate and Governor tightening, as Republican voters start to unify more around their party's candidates. In the Senate race Greg Orman leads Pat Roberts 44-41, with Libertarian Randall Batson at 5%. In a head to head match up without Batson, Orman has a 46/43 advantage. A month ago he led Roberts 46/36- Orman has held onto his support since then, but the incumbent is on the rise. Roberts' gains have come pretty much exclusively with Republicans- he's gone from leading by 26 points with them at 57/31 in September to now a 37 point advantage at 62/25. Roberts remains unpopular- only 37% of voters approve of the job he's doing to 47% who disapprove. But Orman's negatives are rising as the campaign progresses too- his net favorability of +4 at 42/38 is down 16 points from last month when it was +20 at 39/19. There's still one big data point in Kansas pointing to the possibility of Roberts ultimately coming back to win this race. By a 52/35 margin, voters in the state would rather Republicans had control of the Senate than Democrats. And among those who are undecided there's a 48/25 preference for a GOP controlled Senate.

  • WHY COMPETITION in the POLITICS INDUSTRY IS FAILING AMERICA a Strategy for Reinvigorating Our Democracy
    SEPTEMBER 2017 WHY COMPETITION IN THE POLITICS INDUSTRY IS FAILING AMERICA A strategy for reinvigorating our democracy Katherine M. Gehl and Michael E. Porter ABOUT THE AUTHORS Katherine M. Gehl, a business leader and former CEO with experience in government, began, in the last decade, to participate actively in politics—first in traditional partisan politics. As she deepened her understanding of how politics actually worked—and didn’t work—for the public interest, she realized that even the best candidates and elected officials were severely limited by a dysfunctional system, and that the political system was the single greatest challenge facing our country. She turned her focus to political system reform and innovation and has made this her mission. Michael E. Porter, an expert on competition and strategy in industries and nations, encountered politics in trying to advise governments and advocate sensible and proven reforms. As co-chair of the multiyear, non-partisan U.S. Competitiveness Project at Harvard Business School over the past five years, it became clear to him that the political system was actually the major constraint in America’s inability to restore economic prosperity and address many of the other problems our nation faces. Working with Katherine to understand the root causes of the failure of political competition, and what to do about it, has become an obsession. DISCLOSURE This work was funded by Harvard Business School, including the Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness and the Division of Research and Faculty Development. No external funding was received. Katherine and Michael are both involved in supporting the work they advocate in this report.

  • Sam Brownback
    SAM BROWNBACK 08 WATCH: DECEMBER 2005 IN FOCUS: Brownback Is Positioning Himself to be the “John Ashcroft of 2008.” According to the American Spectator, “Kansas Senator Sam Brownback is positioning himself to be the John Ashcroft of 2008 -- the socially conservative candidate who could run as the needed vice-presidential antidote for a nominee with frayed ties to the religious right: McCain? Giuliani? Pataki? Romney?” [American Spectator, 12/05] BUZZ WATCH: Charlie Cook Said That Brownback Is the Leading Representative of One of the Three Wings of the Republican Party That Are Vying for Nomination in 2008. The Kansas City Star reported that, based on observations by political analyst Charlie Cook of the Cook Political Report, “The 2008 GOP presidential nomination could come down to three candidates, each representing different wings of the party: Sen. Sam Brownback of Kansas, from the ‘sacred’ bracket, Sen. John McCain of Arizona, from what Cook called the ‘secular’ bracket, and Sen. George Allen of Virginia in the ‘bridge’ bracket.” [Kansas City Star, 11/13/05] Brownback May be Politically Boxed-In by Evangelical Efforts to Halt Global Warming. The National Association of Evangelicals will soon issue their first policy statement on global warming calling for mandatory greenhouse gas controls. The NAE source criticizes the climate change position of Senate Environment and Public Works Committee Chairman James Inhofe (R-OK), who is a leading skeptic about the science supporting human responsibility for climate change. According to Inside Fuels and Vehicles, “The NAE plan could further flare tensions in the Republican base… Observers say other conservative Republicans could be in similar awkward positions, including Sens.
