Our mission is simple - support progressive policies, candidates and issues that help people in the South and expose policies, candidates and issues that don't.

"Illusions about bipartisanship...have been shattered by McCarthy/McConnell’s rejection of the Jan 6 commission...any investigation that might lay bare the role of the radical right and Trump...was something...McCarthy...could not abide."
Indeed @EJDionne washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
We agree with this - Womack and Hill are not heroes for their vote yesterday.
Crawford, Westerman oppose Jan. 6 commission; but hold applause for Hill and Womack, who say they want to investigate Pelosi more than insurrection arktimes.com/arkansas-blog/2… via @arktimes
So .. @rep_stevewomack @RepWesterman @RepFrenchHill @RepRickCrawford .. y’all voting to fire @Liz_Cheney for telling the truth? History wants to know .
Um...does she read the news? Wonder who's next on the hit parade of liars, crooks, and grifters that will endorse her? Giuliani? Duggar? Miller? Bannon? Gaetz?
This is a level of grossness we can barely stomach.
A month after warning against the dangers of registering "woke college students" to vote, Mississippi's elections chief, Secretary of State Michael Watson, spent the day at Mar-A-Lago golfing with Donald Trump, Lindsey Graham & MS Sen. Joel Carter (right in both pix; photos=his).

On the Chauvin guilty verdict, Vice President Kamala Harris says “A measure of justice isn’t the same as equal justice ... we still must reform the system.” Harris calls on Congress to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

Don and Carol Fowler supported us when we first launched Southern Progress in 2013 and we have deep affection for the Fowler family. We're sending them much love and strength, and we'll carry on our work for a progressive South in Don Fowler's honor. cc: @FowlerDonnie
Lets do this!
We are teaming up with Southern Progress Fund again to bring portable potties to the South. This time for the two elections in Georgia! We need to raise $29,000 to provide 114 portable potties outside polls. Retweet and chip in here: secure.actblue.com/donate/ga…
Tom Cotton is a disgrace
They failed their basic obligations as citizens of a democracy and their oaths of office that obligate them to defend the Constitution. It is hard to imagine any individuals less fit to serve as president — any individuals not named “Trump,” that is.
