Dear Lucas,
The other night, President Obama challenged us to take bold steps to put Americans back to work. To come together to get our economy moving again. To think big.
Unfortunately, Republicans have proven how they think. Small. Petty. In their own political interests. They have shown they will do everything they can - including holding our economy back - in their obsessive drive to make President Obama a one-term president - and seize both houses of Congress.
President Obama is one man. He can't do this alone. Republicans are energized, engaged and eager to take the Senate - to grab each and every rein of power in Washington. We can't let them. We won't let them. President Obama is counting on all of us to be in the fight, and we're starting NOW. Delay is defeat, and this is no time to give up.
That's why I've launched our "Pass the Bill" Project. We've got 48 hours to raise $100,000 and match our opponents - and do our part to move this nation forward.
Your $5 or $10 now will help us grab the momentum - and meet this goal.
President Obama is fired up, and so are we. The time for small action is over. Let's go big.
