If you like safe food and healthy kids, then you should be a big fan of
Debbie Stabenow.
If you like Democrats who stand up to the far right when women's rights and
access to health care are under attack, then you should be a big fan of Debbie
Stabenow.
And if you want to help a great fighter for the middle class beat the
right-wing attack machine in this election, then you should definitely click
here and help me help out my good friend Debbie Stabenow.
You might remember the infamous hearing when one of our Republican colleagues
suggested that he shouldn't have to pay for maternal health care, since he
didn't need it. Debbie quipped that his mother probably did. Argument: won.
But Debbie isn't just a great debater. She's an incredibly talented Senator
who's gotten a lot done for working families. And right now, she's leading the
charge to get a farm bill that supports family farmers in states like, say,
Michigan-- and invests in renewable energy and energy efficiency.
These are good reasons to click
here and chip in to help me help Debbie win. But here's another one:
the far right is dead-set on defeating her in 2012. And it would be great to
watch Debbie do to them what she did in that hearing -- fight back and win.
So join me in sending Debbie a contribution
of whatever amount you can afford . And tell 'em Al sent you.
Thanks,
Al
P.S.: There's only one rhetorical tool more effective than the one Debbie used
in that hearing -- the "extra ask in the P.S." Observe: Won't
