HILLARY CLINTON: PENNSYLVANIA


Dear Robert, 


Thanks to you, we won a critically important victory tonight in Pennsylvania. It's a giant step forward that will transform the landscape of the presidential race. And it couldn't have happened without you. 

There will be much more to do beginning tomorrow. But tonight, let's just celebrate the fact that you and I are part of a remarkable community of people tough enough, passionate enough, and determined enough to win big when everything is on the line. 

Thanks so much for all you do. 

Sincerely, 

Hillary Rodham Clinton

Chris: The grassroots is fired up

Image
Robert, As Political Director, it's my role to train future grassroots leaders, engage communities and help our volunteers. The RNC is building the largest, earliest and most data focused field program in GOP history. And the kick-off GOP presidential debate confirmed the energy we're seeing out in the field: 24 million people tuned in to the Cleveland debate, and thousands hosted GOP watch parties that the RNC organized: The grassroots is fired up.  Here's what's going on in the field: More than 2,000 individuals have applied to be a part of our Republican Leadership Initiative (RLI). We are training and deploying field organizers throughout the entire country. Our field program is expected to expand to thousands of paid staff across the country. Like what you see? This is just the skeleton – and we need to go twice as far to take back the White House. Take your commitment to the next level by  becoming an Official RNC Member today. Every donation you mak...

we continue to move forward

Image
Robert --  Another busy week of campaigning has passed, and we continue to move forward, meeting new people and attacting new volunteers to our efforts. Around the District On Tuesday night I was honored to be the guest of Bloomington Alderman Kevin Lower at a town hall meeting he hosted in Ward 1. Kevin’s dedication to speaking with and directly engaging his constituents is to be commended. On Saturday, we had a wonderful morning in Decatur at a local church and then participated in a family BBQ and forum hosted by the Macoupin County Republican Party. In every county organization across the district, we see energy and enthusiasm as we approach this critical election year. Volunteers at Work Volunteers are busy making phone calls, building our database, and collecting signatures on petitions. Please drop us a note if you’d like to help in anyway. Even an hour or two can help carry the campaign to victory! In DC While the government shutdown ende...

Charles: unbeatable -- until now

Image
Robert -- Let's face it, if Republicans take control of the U.S. Senate, Tea Party nutcases Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and David Vitter will run the Senate exactly like the Tea Party currently runs the U.S. House. To stop them, we need to go on offense. That's why we've got Mitch McConnell on the run in Kentucky with Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes up by 4% in the most recent polls. And it's why Susan Collins in Maine is next. Just like in Kentucky, momentum is on our side. Democrat Shenna Bellows outraised Senator Collins last quarter.  And as the former Executive Director of the Maine ACLU, Shenna is the perfect progressive champion to take on and expose Susan Collins' Tea Party voting record. Contribute $3 right now before tonight's FEC deadline to fuel Shenna Bellows' campaign and hold the Senate in November. Susan Collins voted with the Tea Party to shut down the government -- twice. She voted against the Affordable Care Act, but for warrantless wiretapping...

incredible recovery from severe spinal cord injury

Image
  Dear robert, I’m very pleased to share with you that today the Charlotte Lozier Institute released  a new video  featuring a young woman who made an incredible recovery from severe spinal cord injury thanks to a transplant using  her own adult stem cells .   Meet Laura Dominguez-Tauer. When Laura was only 16, a devastating car crash left her paralyzed from the neck down.  She was told she would never walk again.  Her father’s online research, however, led to the discovery of an adult stem cell transplant done for spinal cord injury survivors.  Now, 15 years later, Laura shares about her recovery, her family, and how she has used her own experience to help others who have been impacted by spinal cord injury, dramatic brain injury, and stroke.  Watch Laura’s story here: Many others like Laura are currently being treated using ethically-derived, non-controversial adult stem cell transplants, which do not rely on the destruction of you...

Russ: We need to do more to help families pay their bills

Image
Robert, Working and middle-class families in Wisconsin are worried about paying their bills. I hear this every day as I listen to voters, especially this week as I talked to new homeowners in Green Bay and Milwaukee about the challenges they face. There are very few options available for working families to help make ends meet, but one is the mortgage interest deduction. That's why it's so troubling to me that Senator Johnson considers this, a bedrock of Wisconsin's middle-class, something that could be on the table for elimination in future tax negotiations. Eliminating the mortgage interest tax deduction would be disastrous for working and middle-class families who own homes in this state, many of whom are already on the brink financially. Middle-class families shouldn't be a bargaining chip. We need to show strong support for this measure. Will you join me in showing your support for the mortgage interest tax deduction today? Senator Johnson doesn...

students are counting on us to act.

Image
  Robert, With the new school year approaching, students are counting on us to act. On July 1, rates on federal student loans doubled from 3.4% to 6.8%.  The shame of it is this could have been easily avoided – all Congress had to do was pass a plan that would have frozen student loan interest rates. Yesterday, Republicans yet again blocked a plan that could restore the original 3.4% interest rate. Instead, students are staring at an unplanned, unexpected increase in their debt – a debt that could haunt them their adult lives. We need to bring these rates down so students can invest in homes of their own, start families and blossom in their careers. I cannot make this happen without your help.  Will you join me in calling on Congress to take action now? Click here to sign this petition, and urge Congress to keep student loan interest rates low....

I’m taking on centuries of white supremacy and patriarchy

Image
        Robert, There would be no Marilyn Mosby without Kamala Harris. When I won state’s attorney, Kamala was my inspiration – and now she’s the Vice President of the United States of America. We are at a critical moment; the precipice of equality and unity, yet hostage to our nation’s history. There is opportunity in our future that we must demand. Progress requires progressive leadership. Progress requires effort. I’m putting in the work, and right now I’m asking for your help.   "Kamala Harris inspires Black women from Baltimore state’s attorney to speaker of Maryland House of Delegates" - Baltimore Sun Far too few Black Women achieve positions of power in this country. While Kamala’s ascension is proof of progress, it is also a reminder of how much further we have to go. I am taking on a field dominated by white men. My policies and actions are dictated by a vision of equality and protection for ALL members of our community. Which is why I’m perceived as a ...

Gary: It’s Show Time for real

Image
Black Independent --  UPDATE: Thousands of supporters and donors are stepping up to take on the CPD.  Can you step up ? It’s Show Time for real, fair presidential debates. More than five years ago, as a presidential candidate, I launched a battle to break up the Republican and Democrat control of the all-important nationally-televised presidential debates. Now we are taking a stand. On October 26, I will be on the steps of the Supreme Court for a rally to bring attention to our case, our  fight for fair debates , and the fundamental injustice of allowing the Republican and Democrats to own and operate the presidential debates. Will you join me? Our grassroots protests have prompted several corporate sponsors to drop their sponsorship, lawsuits to be filed, and awoken millions of Americans to the rigged system. But from the very beginning, the CPD and its two-party partners won't back down without a fight. So  let's bring it to them. The t...

Rand: want to be very honest with you

Image
  Patriot, I want to be very honest with you.   We're still thousands away from our end of quarter Moneybomb goals.  I hate asking for money. It's my least favorite part of this job.   But I can't tell you how important this end of quarter deadline is to this race.   The media and the Washington establishment will use our next FEC report to rate the health of my campaign,  so we need to appear as strong as ever .  My opponent is outraising us already. We know he's writing big checks to his own campaign.  He thinks he can self-fund his way to victory.   But I know the liberty movement is stronger than his checkbook -  we just have to act NOW . CONTRIBUTE NOW  Lucky for us, a generous group of donors agreed to match any email donations made from now until the end of quarter.   That means your donation is worth DOUBLE!   Patriot, I  can't emphasize e nough how importa...
