The President wants you to see this:


 President Obama asked the FCC to put in place strong rules to protect the Internet.

Every day, the Internet unlocks countless possibilities for creation and innovation. And one reason it’s been so successful is a level playing field: Most service providers have traditionally treated all Internet traffic equally.

That’s the principle of “net neutrality.” It’s an idea that says an entrepreneur’s fledgling company should have the same chance to succeed as established corporations, and access to a high school student’s blog shouldn’t be unfairly slowed down to make way for advertisers with more money.

As the FCC considers new rules, we simply can’t take that principle for granted.

Hear directly from President Obama why he supports net neutrality, and what that means for you. Then pass this message on to anyone who cares about the future of the Internet.

 

Watch this important message from President Obama.

My aunt’s dying wish

BREAKING: (more good news!)


In case you missed Meet the Press , here’s what YOU made possible:

That’s right — despite the Republican wave, Democrats are 4-for-4 in deep-red Arizona.

And that fifth too-close to call race?

That’s gun violence prevention advocate and former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords’ old seat.

We were down on Election Night, but we just some great news: Former Giffords aide Ron Barber has closed the gap to 341 votes.

If this trend holds, Barber can still pull into the lead and win!

We wouldn’t have this opportunity to win without you:

Your donations and volunteer hours allowed to us reach out to key voters in this race over 133,000 times.
133,000 Door Knocks and Phone Calls

And the current margin?

341 votes

We just can’t say it enough: Your grassroots support is literally making the difference between victory and defeat in these close races.

We can’t say thank you enough for all you’ve done.

All of us at the DCCC

P.S. The single most important thing we can do right now is ensure that every vote is counted fairly and accurately. Unfortunately the Republicans are already trying to throw out ballots:

Tucson Weekly:
In what remains one of the tightest congressional races in the country, Republican candidate Martha McSally’s legal team is taking steps to toss out the ballots of voters in Pima County

Defeat :::::: Anti Woman Agenda :::::::: a repost from 2013


NARAL Pro-Choice America

Want to know the kind of world we live in? We live in a world where extremist groups actually brag about becoming a “political machine” to be able to more effectively marginalize and actually endanger women who don’t agree with them.

The Susan B. Anthony List is one such group. And this organization is raising millions of dollars to test its power in Virginia’s 2013 gubernatorial race — with the intention of electing a slate of anti-woman candidates in 2014. And we know this will only lead to even more horrific state-level anti-choice laws in states across the country.

We have to match them dollar for dollar  to protect women, to protect choice, and to protect our constitutional freedom. Will you help us stand up to the SBA List and other anti-choice organizations like them?

SBA List’s positions are like a greatest-hits collection of anti-choice, anti-woman zealotry. They’ve called Todd Akin “an excellent partner.” They said they supported former Senate candidate Richard Mourdock’s comments about pregnancy from rape that “life is always a gift from God.” They even defended Virginia’s forced ultrasound bill.

The SBA List is raising millions of dollars to elect a governor in Virginia who will try to pass even more extreme laws. And it’s coming for states across the country.

I’m trying to stop them. Will you help me stop them, and protect choice at all levels?
