Don't know if this has been posted yet, but I just received the following email:
groundloop,
This is Wisconsin State Senator Chris Larson -- and today, I'm heading
home to Wisconsin to join the fight in person.
The last three weeks have shown what progressive strength and worker
solidarity look like.
My fellow senators and I know that thousands of PCCC members in Wisconsin
and across the nation have been fighting right alongside us -- attending
rallies, making phone calls, donating to some great TV ads, and telling
your friends about the Republican war on workers.
I want to say thank you. I also want to let you know that the fight's not
over.
Republicans need to learn what accountability feels like. It's time for
Republican senators to be recalled from office.
<1>The PCCC just opened up an official Recall Committee in Wisconsin --
which will mobilize volunteers and run new ads against vulnerable
Republicans. Please chip in $3 to help fund this vital work.
Wisconsin Republicans brazenly stampeded over the will of the people as
they engaged in their right-wing attack on workers.
They shut down the public hearings, they shut down the legislative
hotline, they shut down debate in the Assembly in the middle of the night,
and they tried to lock citizens out of the Capitol. And on Wednesday
night, when they had their last chance at redemption, Republican senators
chose to bend the rules and join Governor Walker's war on working
families.
The citizens of Wisconsin are rising up and engaging in the democratic
process like never before. Recalls of the Republicans are kicking into
high gear as clipboards begin to replace protest signs in neighborhoods
across the state.
Governor Walker and Republican senators refused to listen to the public --
but now the people will be heard all across the state at the ballot box.
<2>Please help us win this fight by chipping in $3 to the PCCC's Recall
Committee. Click here.
Thanks again for standing with us in solidarity, and for being a bold
progressive.
