Organizing for Action

[10] As a tax exempt 501(c)(4) organization, it sought to harness the energy of the president's re-election campaign for future legislative fights.

[5] Questions were raised about the aims and the eligibility of Organizing for Action to continue to maintain the www.barackobama.com website and also control the @barackobama Twitter account.

[10] In February 2013, The New York Times reported that donors contributing or raising $500,000 or more to OFA would put them on the group's national advisory board, granting the privilege of attending quarterly update meetings given by the president.

"[20][21] On December 17, 2013, OFA tweeted a photograph of a young man with thick-rimmed glasses, wearing black-and-red plaid onesie pajamas, and cradling a mug.

[23] The tweet and pajama-clad man featured in it were quickly dubbed Pajama Boy, and mocked across social media, particularly by conservatives.

[26] In February 2017, after a long period of inactivity, OFA said that it had hired 14 field organizers as part of its campaign to defend Obama's signature healthcare law.

[27] In June 2018, OFA said that it intended to deploy organizers in 27 Republican-held congressional districts which could be key to a Democratic takeover of the House of Representatives.
