Conservative Democrats dark money-funded rural voter project has everything to do with sinking Medicare for All
Two conservative former Democratic senators, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Joe Donnelly of Indiana, have launched the One Country Project, a 501(c)(4) not-for-profit organization that aims to attract rural voters to the Democratic Party. However, according to Maplights Andrew Perez, working in partnership with The Intercept, the organization is also a dark money group, using the two former lawmakers to push an anti-Medicare-for-all agenda.
Perez found that the One Country Projects website is registered to an executive at Forbes Tate Partners, a lobbying and public relations firm founded by former Clinton administration officials. Forbes Tate Partners is leading lobbying efforts for Partnership for Americas Health Care Future (PAHCF), which, according to Maplight, is a health industry-backed nonprofit created to crush momentum for a comprehensive universal health care system.
