Dear Friends,
Thank you for your generous support of the DCCC and our Win the House 2012 program. Because of your continued and tireless efforts on behalf of House Democrats, we're gaining momentum and have put the House in play.
Last month, Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi announced the start of our Win the House 2012
program. Many of you answered her call by contributing directly to our priority Frontline Members of Congress and candidates. Now, with only 95 days until Election Day, we are in a critical stretch of our "Drive to 25" campaign to win the Majority and we need your help once again.To kick off our updated August Win the House 2012 program, I've asked DCCC Executive Director Robby Mook and DCCC Political Director Kelly Ward to host a conference call on Wednesday, August 15th at 1:00 P.M. (EST) to discuss August's priority races. For call-in information or for additional details, please contact Mike Smith at smith@dccc.org .
Our Members and candidates in tough races are making important budget decisions and ramping up their efforts to communicate with voters. They must have financial resources to reserve TV advertising time, as rates are doubling and even tripling in many media markets, and to ensure they have organizers to build a strong ground game.
The steps we take today to support these Members and candidates will allow them to stay on offense and gain momentum. Please contribute to each of our August Win the House 2012 candidates and Members by Friday August 31st.
Thank you again for your generous support. We will be sending you updates over the coming weeks on our priority candidates included in the Win the House 2012 program. Your participation is an investment in building a Democratic House Majority and reigniting the American dream.
