Doors - June 20, 2018
June 20, 2018
HEGAR: This is a story about doors – a lot of them. And that's me – MJ Hegar, an Air Force combat veteran and a mom. This door behind me is from my Pave Hawk helicopter. It's all that's left of the aircraft that I was flying that day. I was on a rescue mission in Afghanistan as a combat search-and-rescue pilot. I heard the windshield crack and realized I'd been shot, but continued the mission and airlifted the patients out. After taking even more fire, we crashed a few […]

Grandfather - Sept. 18, 2017
September 18, 2017
As a little girl, my grandfather used to tell me stories of his life during World War II. He was a bomber pilot and his plane was shot down over occupied France. As my grandfather parachuted from the sky, he didn't know if he would live or die. He didn't know he'd be rescued by the French Resistance and brought to a farm on the countryside, or that he'd hide from Nazi patrols in a barn a lot like this one. What he did know is that he wasn't going […]

Linda Coleman for Congress - April 11, 2018
COLEMAN: I believe in us, not us versus them, because it's on us to empower schools to train our remarkable young people. It is on us to reward hard work with fair wages. And it is on us to make sure all of us have affordable, quality health care. I'm Linda Coleman and as your second congressional district representative, I'll bring the values that matter to us – all of us – to the United States Congress.

Told Me - August 1, 2017
MCGRATH: When I was 12 years old, I knew exactly what I wanted to do when I grew up. I wanted to fly fighter jets and land on aircraft carriers, because that's the toughest flying you can do. When I was 13, my congressman told me I couldn't fly in combat. He said Congress thought women ought to be protected and not allowed to serve in combat. I never got a letter back from my senator, Mitch McConnell. I then wrote every member of the House and Senate Armed Services […]

Georgia First - May 16, 2018
May 16, 2018
MCBATH: I'm your neighbor here in Georgia's 6th congressional district. I spent 30 years as a Delta Airlines flight attendant. I've met all kinds of Americans going to all kinds of places. They worked so hard to help their families and make ends meet. There's so much chaos and dysfunction in Washington. I want to offer something different. It's born from two big experiences in my life – the challenge of having breast cancer and losing my son to a senseless act of gun violence. I will put Georgia first […]

I will put Georgia first and I will always look for common-sense solutions by building bridges, not tearing people apart. The time for common-sense solutions for stronger and safer communities is now.

Tough - April 12, 2018
April 12, 2018
FINKENAUER: You want to know what tough is? Wringing the sweat out of your belt. Clocking in for your third shift. Stretching it further than you thought it could go. Tough is my dad on a 16-hour shift. Tough is my mom holding down a job and holding it together back home. Tough is my grandpa rushing into burning buildings to save people's lives. Tough is 4:00 in the morning, fields need planting and cows need feeding. Tough is small town, big heart, pull through the hard times love. Tough […]

Guts vs. Glitz - July 12, 2018
July 12, 2018
REPORTER: A rare congressional hearing in Phoenix where Democrat Kyrsten Sinema and Republican Martha McSally were just a few feet apart. ANNOUNCER: Kyrsten Sinema treated the event as a photo-op, ducking out before the hard work of the hearing was finished. REPORTER: Congresswoman McSally took questions from reporters during a break in the hearing. Congresswoman Sinema slipped out before the hearing ended. ANNOUNCER: A doer versus a talker, a patriot versus a politician, guts versus glitz. Arizona has a clear choice for the United States Senate.
