Americans for Job Security
Americans for Job Security (AJS) is a Virginia-based 501(c)(6) pro-business league. The group has operated since 1997 and runs issue advertisements nationwide. It is not required to disclose its political contributions or expenditures.〔Andrew Wheat, ("DeLay’s Beautiful Laundrette' ), October 21, 2005] ''Texas Observer''〕
==History and related organizations==
Michael Dubke, David Carney, and several business groups helped start Americans for Job Security in 1997. Carney was political director for President George H. W. Bush, and Dubke was the first executive director and then president of Americans for Job Security until April 2008, when Stephen DeMaura, recruited by Carney, took over.
In 2002, AJS ran over $1 million in advertising attacking Democrat Jeanne Shaheen, who was running for the US Senate from NH in opposition to Republican John Sununu. In the 2008 rematch between Shaheen and Sununu, AJS again funded advertising attacking Shaheen.〔(Huffington Post (July 1, 2008) "Sununu front group attacks Shaheen in NH" )〕 In 2012, it bought $8 million worth of ads opposing Obama's reelection.
Complaints have been filed with the FEC stating that AJS should lose its 501(c)(6) status, which is reserved for "business leagues and trade associations" rather than groups that seek to influence elections.〔(NPR (September 15, 2008) "Controversial pro-business group targets Dems" )〕〔(Public Citizen press release (April 11, 2007) )〕
