Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays! We all like to celebrate the holidays by taking a step back from the frenzy of our lives. Politics makes this makes this very hard – and I know this better than most. Six years ago today (yes, just two days after Christmas) I ran in a special election for the State Senate.

I won that election because people saw the need for immediate action and took some time away from friends and family to make a statement for building a stronger community. I need you to take a few minutes today to do the same thing. Together we outraised my Tea Party opponent last quarter – overcoming the help of Michele Bachmann and Big Oil – and with your help today, we can do that again!

Give $5 or $10 to send a message to the Tea Party that we are standing up for our communities and will win back Congress. I need your help today to hit my goal before the end of the week.

My opponent has spent the last year voting to end Medicare and raise taxes on every working person in America. At the same time he has fought for tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and huge multinational corporations.

This isn’t what our families and communities need from Congress, and with your help again during this holiday season, I will replace him in Washington and fight for our priorities. Contribute today to send the Tea Party packing and put our priorities first again.

I am not running for office to represent Big Oil, or Billionaires, or the special interests – I am running because our families and communities need a leader who will fight for them in Congress.

Thank you,

Tarryl

P.S. My opponent is out cashing checks from Big Oil and Bachmann, but with your help I will overcome them and win. Outraising my opponent means more air time, more boots on the ground, and a win in November – and we can top him again with your gift of $5 or $10 to help me reach my goal.
