VIDEO: Click here to watch Washington, D.C. – On Thursday, MoveOn Political Action Executive Director Rahna Epting appeared on NBC’s Meet The Press NOW to discuss the GOP’s MAGA extremism and why it is backfiring with Americans. MAGA Republicans in Congress are pursuing a radical agenda including a baseless and partisan impeachment inquiry and wanting to shut down the government. “Republicans have been on the ‘we’re going to impeach Biden’ beat since day one,” said Epting when discussing the impeachment inquiry, “What this really is, is they’re trying to distract from the fact that Trump has…

In response to the U.S. Senate failing to codify abortion rights today, MoveOn Political Action Executive Director Rahna Epting issued the following statement: Washington, D.C. – “This vote was important because every person in this country deserves to know where their elected leaders stand on whether they should have control over their own bodies. Every American should know if their elected official believes they are full citizens of this country or second-class citizens. But this needs to be a first step, not a last step. “We’re not interested in show…

“What the nation will see this month, starting with the January 6 select committee hearings, is MAGA extremism on full display. From blocking the sensible gun violence prevention laws we urgently need to attempting to overturn Roe v. Wade to new evidence of their deadly coup attempt, Republicans are showing the nation their values, their priorities, and their agenda. “When it comes to January 6, the facts are overwhelming and indisputable. Donald Trump, encouraged and empowered by the entire Republican Party, led a deadly coup attempt and tried to overthrow…

“Let’s be clear: This ruling will only fuel the epidemic of gun violence in this country. It is a shameful and outrageous decision which will lead to more deaths and more violence. The conservative-packed Supreme Court, in concert with Republicans in Congress, is ensuring our schools, our grocery stores, and our churches will continue to be targets of violence and not the sanctuaries and safe places they should be. “It is hard to imagine a Supreme Court that is more out of touch with the people of this nation than…

“This bill will save lives. For that alone, it is worth celebrating. For once, Congress is offering more than ‘thoughts and prayers.’ Let’s be clear: This is the most meaningful action on gun violence that has been enacted by Congress in two decades. This bill is a significant step forward. But it also is just the beginning of what our nation needs to seriously address the tragic gun violence crisis. “As we saw with the ruling by the Supreme Court yesterday, the most extreme elements of the Republican Party want…

We won’t go back, but we will overturn the GOP. “Today, the Supreme Court decimated nearly 50 years worth of progress and for the first time in generations stripped us of our rights, freedoms, and control over our bodies. It is an outrageous and dangerous ruling which proves this court is nothing more than an arm of the Republican Party. Let’s be clear: Six justices did not overturn Roe; the entire Republican Party did. It makes the extremism of the modern-day Republican Party bare for all to see. “We are…
