AFL – CIO … Cablevision employees stay strong & did you know Gov.Daniels was Against”Right to Work”Before He Was for it


Jan. 20, 2012


Some 285 Cablevision employees in Brooklyn are voting next week on whether to join CWA, despite  efforts by a corporate union-buster to stop them from forming a union.

Over the past year, GOP-controlled state houses have been passing Voter ID laws, making it harder for many people, including America‘s seniors, to vote. Alliance for Retired Americans President Barbara Easterling says this is an outrage: “Our generation, like those who came before us, fought and died for the right to vote. We must never let politicians take this away.”

Contribute to Oregon’s Democratic Candidate-Suzanne Bonamici TODAY, before Monday’s media buy deadline… from Robby Mook


BREAKING: Tea Party candidate Rob Cornilles just took thousands of dollars from the Koch Brothers‘ business PAC — “KOCHPAC” — in the Oregon Special Election.

We knew it would come to this. Voters in Oregon’s vote by mail only election have already started to receive ballots and sure enough Washington Republicans have swooped in with a television ad buy distorting Democrat Suzanne Bonamici’s record with half-truths, mistruths and lies.

Now we’ve learned her Republican opponent Rob Cornilles has received thousands of dollars from the billionaire Koch Brothers’ business PAC. This Oregon special election race is in its final throes and we need to have Suzanne’s back.

Be part of our people-powered movement and fight back. Help us raise $30,000 for Suzanne by Monday’s media buy deadline for her immediate rapid response operation.

Please contribute to Suzanne today for her rapid response operation before Monday’s media buy deadline.

A generous contribution to Suzanne will be put to work immediately to secure a Democratic victory in this district. A gift of even just $5 would go a long way, but gifts at the $25, or $50 level or even a $100 or more level are urgently needed now.

Don’t let Washington Republicans get the last word. Help Suzanne fight back and get her positive message out and deliver home another Democratic victory.

Onward to victory,

Robby

Nowhere else I’d rather be … Sarah Benzing


I knew when I came on as Sherrod’s campaign manager that this would be a tough fight. And, believe me – it’s not easy to plan a winning campaign when you’re facing a larger special interest spending gap than any other Democrat in the country.

But there’s nowhere else I’d rather be. The nearly $3,000,000 worth of attack ads Karl Rove and his pals have thrown at us already tell me that I’m working for the right guy – a true progressive who represents a real danger to the special interests’ monopoly on political power.

And small-dollar contributions from thousands of progressives like you tell me that we can win, no matter what the special interests have in store.

If you haven’t had a chance to help Sherrod win by making a contribution to our grassroots campaign, now’s a great time. And if you’ve given once, now’s a perfect time to double down on your support by giving again!

Like you, I’ve watched these powerful interests conspire to paralyze our government and hurt our middle class. I’ve watched them smear progressives and try to buy elections. I’ve watched them lie about our agenda and hide their own.

And let me tell you: It’s a privilege to be able to fight against them every single day on this campaign. Sherrod says he takes Karl Rove’s onslaught of attacks as a badge of honor. And none of us here at the campaign are afraid of a tough fight.

I hope I can count on you to share that same spirit – and I hope you’ll consider clicking here and making a contribution to make our campaign possible. Even $5 would help, so please give today!

There’s no one I’d rather be working for than Sherrod Brown. And I’m incredibly proud to be part of a campaign where we don’t back off our progressive values and we don’t back down when we’re attacked. But it’s your support that makes it all possible. And I hope you’re ready for this fight.

Please click here to give now!

Thanks for making this all possible.

See both ads for yourself … by Jim Messina, BarackObama.com


We’ve talked a lot about super PACs, other outside groups, and the hundreds of millions of dollars they’re going to spend attacking us.
It’s started.
Right now, the outside group Americans for Prosperity is pouring millions of dollars into a false ad trying to tear down President Obama’s record.


We’re not going to react every single time an unaccountable outside group decides to trash the President on TV. But this one gave us the opportunity to show exactly how much the President has done for energy in this country: increasing domestic production — including renewable energy sources — across the board, saving consumers money, and decreasing our dependence on foreign oil.
See both ads for yourself. Then, if you can, chip in $5 or more to help us fight back.

It wasn’t part of our plan to run a big ad in January of 2012, but this is the new reality we’re operating in.
They’re relying on a handful of millionaires — we’re relying on you.
Please pitch in to help us fight back today:
Thanks,
Messina
