Organizing for Action, the shadowy liberal advocacy group that emerged from President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign, recently cut its fundraising target in half, the Huffington Post notes:
On Sunday, the Washington Post reported that OFA "has halved a $50 million fundraising goal for its first year after slower-than-expected fundraising, according to people familiar with the group's plans. The decision came after the group reversed course and said it would not accept corporate funds."
OFA did not return a request for comment from the Huffington Post.
Last week, OFA launched a seven-figure ad campaign promoting Obamacare, as the administration works to persuade more Americans to sign up for health care under the president's signature law. The group is also targeting 75 congressional districts for a push on immigration reform this summer.
While OFA has said it will not accept donations from corporations, it did not extend that prohibition to labor unions, which have donated significant sums to the group.
