In an
announcement just this morning, the campaign finance reform SuperPAC, Mayday, has endorsed incumbent Walter Jones [R; NC-03].
On the Issues summarizes Jones' stands as shown above (reprinted from
Jones' Ballotpedia summary page).
Ballotpedia also summarizes some of Jones' most recent House votes on critical issues:
Voted against HR 2775, which sought to end the shutdown of the Federal government.
Voted for HR 273, which sought to prevent a pay raise for Federal workers.
Voted for House Amendment 136, which sought to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain illegal aliens residing in the United States.
Voted for HR 1797, which sought to ban abortions that would take place 20 or more weeks after fertilization.
Voted against the so-called fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels.
This is yet another pandering forlorn-hope move by Lessig's Mayday PAC to attempt to somehow cope with the fact that Republicans support neither Mayday nor campaign finance reform.
Dear Larry: I strongly recommend you should avoid coming down here to Raleigh anytime soon...at least while a Moral Mondays demonstration is underway.
Tip of the hat to Election Law Blog's Rick Hasen, who reminds us that Walter Jones has also called for President Obama's impeachment.
Is this too much for you, too? Please let Mayday's leadership know it: hashtag #LessigWTF
