TBAF Rolls Out Efforts in Massachusetts, Georgia, South Carolina and Alabama

With successful wins at the FEC, a Statewide effort in South Carolina and at ballot box, Take Back Action Fund is expanding efforts into four states for 2020.

Current Projects
  1. Elected School Boards in Alabama. In their first years of running political efforts in Virginia,
current members of the TBAF team fought against efforts by Democrats to prevent Virginians
from electing their own school boards. Ironically decades later it is Republicans trying to take
the right of Alabamians to elect their own state school board. TBAF asks voters to vote
NO on Amendment One in order to preserve their right to elect the Alabama State Board
of Education, rather than have it appointed by political insiders.
  1. Holding local officials accountable for policy decisions that create problems with traffic
and even flooding by doing the bidding of major donors and political cronies. TBAF personnel
will ask voters leaving primary precincts if they believe flooding is a key issue that must be
addressed by infrastructure improvements and other prioritization to prevent the owners of
homes and businesses from losing property.
  1. Create a study committee regarding the cost savings and other advantages of bringing
instant runoffs to Georgia. Click for website. See our separate blog on hiring a State Director
in Georgia.

4. Knocking on thousands of doors in Massachusetts to learn the priorities of voters outside

 the Boston Metro area.

We hope to add Florida to the list in the months ahead.

TBAF Board Members Respond to Rare Unanimous FEC Decision Regarding Proposed Facebook Ads

TBAF Board Members Respond to Rare Unanimous FEC Decision Regarding Proposed Facebook Ads Members of the Take Back Action Fund Board of Directors responded to a unanimous decision by the Federal Elections Commission that its proposed Facebook ads potentially advocating the defeat of Democratic candidates based on hypocrisy over disclosing political contributions involving Russia and other issues. "I've been running hard-hitting political ads that play by the rules for years," said TBAF Board Member Charles Hellwig, who first worked with TBAF President John Pudner on Ollie North's run for US Senate in 1994. "However, if the FEC had deadlocked again on a Facebook matter it would have sent a clear signal that we were free to pay to run our attacks through Facebook without ever having to say Take Back Action Fund was the one paying for the ads.  We are happy we made this point, and that every group now knows they can no longer assume the FEC will deadlock and b...

Fortenberry Leads Georgia Take Back Action Fund

Kristi Fortenberry has been named Georgia State Director for Take Back Action Fund, the conservative leader in reforming the rules of political campaigns to stop pay-for-play efforts to distort the will of the people. “We are grateful to have Kristi leading our efforts in Georgia,” said national field director Lars Wiechman, who like Fortenburg and Take Back Action Fund (TBAF) President John Pudner learned the political process through grassroots fieldwork for Republican candidates before joining the nonpartisan TBAF.  “Kristi’s proven ability to train and maximize efforts from political canvassers to exceed quotas for Lynne Homrich (Home Depot executive running for Georgia’s 7th Congressional District) as well as train cadets to work together in team-building exercises in the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) made her the perfect fit. She has won over Georgia residents in political settings and briefings and provided military briefs - making her the perfect le...
