Russ: I've been to all of Wisconsin's 72 counties more than once

Russ for Wisconsin
Robert --
My campaign is about going where the people are. That's why I've been to all of Wisconsin's 72 counties more than once, and why I've put over 46,000 miles on the campaign van. Since getting into the race, I've spent as much time as possible on the road, listening to my fellow Wisconsinites. And each conversation energizes and inspires me.
My desire to serve the people of Wisconsin has never been stronger. And if I'm fortunate enough to win this election, I'll do the hard work it takes to get things done, because Wisconsinites from Ashland to Kenosha have told me that's what our state needs. And I'm ready to roll up my sleeves and get to work!
But our current senator, Ron Johnson, doesn't think it's his job to listen to the people he represents -- and it shows. That's why in his last campaign ad, Senator Johnson couldn't point to even one thing he's accomplished in the Senate!
We have the momentum. But, to win, we need to turn up the pressure even more. Our campaign's Ju‌ne 30‌ end-of-quarter fundraising deadline is just around the corner. This is our biggest chance to show Senator Johnson and the 10 right-wing groups currently backing his campaign just how strong our grassroots team is. Right now, we're at $125,000, but with your help, we can double that number. So I'm setting the most ambitious grassroots goal of our campaign yet: $250,000.

Over and over, you hear political pundits say that Wisconsin is hopelessly divided and that we all resent each other. But that's not what I'm hearing from Wisconsinites. The truth is, most people I meet are ready to unite. They're ready to put an end to the slash-and-burn politics that have dominated Wisconsin for the last six years. And they're ready to elect a senator that will work for them, not the special interests.
Thank you, always, for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Russ Feingold

John Kerry: Future generations are counting on us

Dear Robert, Every election is a chance to write the future. Don't let this election be the moment our children or grandchildren point to as when it all started to unravel. Because without a Senate firewall, some Republicans would seize it as the moment to end Social Security forever, gut Medicare benefits for more tax giveaways, and instantly repeal our historic health care reform. Our margin for error is so slim. If we lose just 4 of the 23 Democratic seats up this cycle, Republicans will have free rein in Washington. The DSCC needs $235,000 before midnight Friday to defend those seats. Future generations are counting on us. Nothing less than maximum effort will prevent us from careening down the wrong track. Fully 90% of the DSCC’s contributions come from the grassroots, and I know they need every last nickel. Don’t take chances with our majority – or with our future. Give right away. Click here to rush $5, $10 or more to the DSCC before midnight Friday. Democrat

Andrew: Big Pharma is getting rich by spreading a plague

Big Pharma is getting rich by spreading a plague among our people. Add your name to support my proposal to hold them accountable Yang Gang -- Every hour, eight Americans die from overdoses.  It’s gotten so bad that drug overdoses have overtaken car accidents as one of the top causes of death in America, and our nation’s life expectancy has decreased for the last three years. It’s a crisis of capitalism run amok. Our government was complicit in enabling this epidemic because they looked the other way while Purdue Pharma and others dispensed hundreds of thousands of OxyContin prescriptions as a non-addictive wonder drug.  And now we’re all grappling with the aftermath. During the debate last week, I gave an answer that has gotten a lot of people talking.  I talked about putting the resources back into the communities that were destroyed so our people could have a fighting chance to get well. Drug companies are now settling lawsuits for a tiny fraction of their overall profit

Sara El-Amine Apply now to be one of our fall fellows

Friend -- I'm the national training director at Obama for America. My job is to develop the programs and resources our staff and volunteers use to teach others how to grow this campaign in their communities. I'm writing because you or someone you know might want to be among a group of people who will play the leading role in our grassroots strategy this fall. They're called our fall fellows. By now you've probably heard of our summer organizers program, through which more than 1,500 full-time volunteer organizers have stepped up as the next generation of leaders in this movement. These folks have been the focus and the heart of our movement all summer, and though each and every one of them will remain a part of this organization, their time as Summer Organizers ends next month. The job of fall fellows is to pick their work up and carry it forward into the months to come. Our fall fellows are going to engage new volunteers on front porches and over the phones.
