Letter from Senator Feingold (please read!)

[dragonlady]

(This letter was released by Bryan Kennedy's campaign today, and it is an eloquent summary of why we need to add Bryan to Wisconsin's congressional delegation to help get our country back on the right track.)

U.S. Senator Russ Feingold



Dear Friends,
I'm writing to you today because we have an opportunity here in
Wisconsin to support a strong progressive candidate for Congress. Bryan
Kennedy shares my commitment to work to provide health care for all
Americans, protect and create jobs, ensure fiscal responsibility, and
fight terrorism while also protecting our freedoms.
http://www.bk2006.org/contribute.mgi Bryan is running in the 5th
Congressional district again Congressman James Sensenbrenner. As many of
you know Congressman Sensenbrenner has been an outspoken critic of my
efforts to try and fix the broken provisions of the USA PATRIOT ACT. In
addition Sensenbrenner has yet to hold a single hearing to investigate
President Bush's illegal program to spy on American citizens without the
legally required warrants. Bryan Kennedy understands that we can
vigorously fight terrorism without sacrificing our freedoms, and I would
welcome his support on these issues as a member of congress.
Please take a moment to make a contribution
http://www.bk2006.org/contribute.mgi to Bryan Kennedy's campaign
against Jim Sensenbrenner. With our support Bryan can run a strong
campaign in a traditionally conservative district. I am committed to
helping to elect more Democrats in Wisconsin and across the country. If
we are to be successful in this effort, Bryan Kennedy is exactly the
kind of candidate that we must support
http://www.bk2006.org/contribute.mgi .

Sincerely,

US Senator Russ Feingold

1. All he had to say was he was running against Sensenbrenner

4. True, that's all that DUers need

Bryan is also somebody who deserves to be in Congress on his own merits--intelligent, articulate, cares about people and the safety and success of our country. I have faith that we can get that across to a lot of the voters who have voted for Sensenbrenner in the past.

10. I've donated to Bryan's campaign and will do so again. I also want to go

to Wisconsin in the fall and work on his campaign. Any Duers who live in his district who can tell me where to go and where I can get a hotel? What cities are in his District? I WILL BE in Wisconsin this fall. SENSENBRENNER MUST GO!
