Contribute now to defeat Republican Rep. Don Young

Goal thermometer

We're not going to mince words: GOP Rep. Don Young is an awful human being. His litany of offenses is far too long to recount here in its entirety, but here's a sampling:


  • A few years ago, when visiting a high school where a student had just committed suicide, Young launched into a profane tirade and claimed that suicide results from "a lack of support from friends and family." An already reeling community was furious.
  • Last year, he demeaned a 51-year-old fellow member of Congress, calling her a "young lady" who didn't know "a damn thing" about the issue under debate—on the floor of the House itself.
  • And now he's really gone and done it: He just blamed the Jews for the Holocaust, ignorantly bleating, "How many Jews were put in the ovens because they were unarmed?"


How exactly would a handgun have helped Anne Frank? Just disgusting.


Alaska's a red state, but thanks to his bitter temper and ugly tongue, Young's faced some close calls in the past. With energy on Democrats' side, 2018 might finally be the year we put an end to his miserable career.
