OFA …


This movement was founded on a simple but game-changing idea:

That grassroots, on-the-ground organizing is the most powerful force in politics.

Powerful enough to win a historic presidential election and bring the country together after eight years of division — powerful enough to achieve health reform 100 years in the making.

But we got here because millions of people committed to this idea in the years and months that came before these victories — and President Obama will be the first to tell you that our work is not done.

Right now, Organizing for America is reinvesting in key states and districts, rebuilding our grassroots infrastructure, and preparing for the fights ahead.

Over the next few days, we’ll be deciding where and exactly how much we can invest — and with your help, we can be in the strongest position possible.

Will you donate $25 or more today to support Organizing for America?

When the President was elected on November 4th, 2008, it felt like the world had changed almost overnight.

After eight years of out-of-touch policies that drove our economy into a ditch, we had elected a leader with a new vision for government, a mandate for reforming Washington, and a personal story possible only in America.

But the truth is that nothing happened overnight.

That victory — and every victory that followed — is a credit to the power of this grassroots movement.

From the very first days of the presidential campaign in 2007 through the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” in December — the relationships you developed on the ground took root in unprecedented ways, and together, we made history.

We have to do it again.

President Obama has laid out an ambitious agenda for winning the future, calling on Congress to come together to make key investments in innovation, education, and infrastructure. To reform government, confront the deficit, and make sure the economy works for all Americans.

He can’t do it alone. The challenges we’ll face over the next months will call on each of us to remember why we are a part of this movement: because we believe in something bigger than politics. Because we now know what is possible when we invest not just in a campaign, but in one another.

Your support will help us make key decisions about where we can place staff and resources as we rebuild and plan the next phase of this movement.

New Hampshire Primaries …Vote for Ann M Kuster



Win or lose, I want to say:

THANK YOU.

Annie Kuster

Ann McLane Kuster

People-powered candidate for Congress

Tomorrow is my congressional primary in New Hampshire against Katrina Swett, and our campaign has great momentum.

But win or lose, I want to say thank you to PCCC members for adding to the “people power” of my grassroots campaign.

Our campaign has over a thousand local volunteers working tirelessly — and the phone calls from PCCC members to voters were a tremendous help (and they continue through tomorrow).

I’m also proud that my campaign has raised more money from New Hampshire citizens than anyone ever to run for U.S. House of Representatives in our state history. Many PCCC members donated $3, $4, or $10 as well, allowing us to continually expand our grassroots effort.

What’s great about running a people-powered campaign is that it allows candidates to be accountable to the people — not the special interests.

The PCCC has been a great partner and has helped progressive candidates like me run effective, people-powered campaigns. It’s been an honor to know that thousands of people in New Hampshire and beyond are watching this race and helping us run a strong campaign.

So again, thank you for being part of the “people power” that is changing this country. Your efforts are noticed and greatly appreciated — and with your help we’ll enjoy a big victory together on Tuesday.

Sincerely,

Ann McLane Kuster

P.S. You can still sign up to make “get out the vote” phone calls to voters on Tuesday — or donate to help us fund our “get out the vote” online ads in the final 24 hours. Both are appreciated.
