Senate Majority PAC

Senate Majority PAC, Democrats’ top Senate super PAC, is committed to defeating GOP Sen. Susan Collins following Graham Platner’s suspension of his campaign. The PAC had previously threatened to cut resources if Platner remained on the ticket after allegations against him, which he denies, were reported by POLITICO.

Democrats in Maine seek a replacement for Graham Platner amid allegations of sexual assault, which he denies. Party leaders, including Chuck Schumer, avoid involvement to prevent voter backlash and ensure a transparent process. Platner remains in the race until July 13, with the Maine Democratic Party required to name a replacement by July 27.

Democrats and lawmakers are urging U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner to exit the race following new sexual assault allegations. Platner denied the claims but postponed campaign events, while the Maine Democratic Party and Senate Majority PAC shifted support away from his campaign.

Graham Platner's Senate campaign faces collapse as prominent Democrats, including Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, withdraw support following allegations he forced a former partner to have sex. Key Democratic organizations and endorsers, such as the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and VoteVets, have rescinded backing, redirecting resources away from the Maine race.

The Supreme Court refused to block the release of an $8.2 million jury verdict in favor of Roy Moore, a Republican politician, against a Democratic super PAC. The 11th Circuit had earlier overturned the verdict, ruling the PAC's ad, which implied Moore solicited sex from a 14-year-old girl, constituted a negligent error rather than actual malice.

Roy Moore filed an emergency application with the U.S. Supreme Court to block an 11th Circuit ruling from taking effect, seeking to preserve an $8.2 million jury award he received in a defamation case against Senate Majority PAC. The 11th Circuit overturned the jury's verdict, which found the PAC defamed Moore by falsely portraying him in a campaign ad, and Moore argues the bond guaranteeing the award may be lost if the ruling becomes final before the Supreme Court reviews it.

Graham Platner leads the Democratic primary in Maine against GOP Sen. Susan Collins despite scandals, prompting reluctant support from establishment Democrats. National Democrats and Senate leadership emphasize defeating Collins, while critics question Platner's viability due to controversies. Republicans label Platner 'toxic' and warn of challenges for Democrats in November.

A watchdog report reveals that teachers' unions, including the National Education Association (NEA) and American Federation of Teachers (AFT), have spent over $1 billion on liberal political causes since 2015, with critics arguing the funds prioritize activism over education. The spending includes contributions to progressive organizations, Democratic-aligned PACs, and campaigns opposing school choice.
