Subject: Wisconsin house of cards is falling
To: "Daniel Stafford" <aquarianm@gmail.com>
Daniel,
Republicans wanted to turn Wisconsin red. But their house of cards is falling.
A judge just ruled that Scott Walker's law ending union rights was unconstitutional! Meanwhile, PCCC staffer Katrina Strickland won a 7-way Democratic primary for state Assembly on a platform of fighting boldly against Walker.
Paul Ryan's star is falling as national media expose him as a serial liar and political lightweight. His opponent for Congress, Rob Zerban, was recently featured on MSNBC's Up with Chris Hayes and has raised more money than Ryan's last 5 opponents combined.
And bold progressive Wisconsin legislator Mark Pocan is leading in his race for Congress!
Rob Zerban and Mark Pocan both got a perfect score on our 99elect questionnaire, done with other progressive organizations.
That means they oppose any cuts to Social Security and Medicare benefits, favor criminal prosecutions of Wall Street bankers who broke the law, and favor major government investment in jobs. They also favor strengthening union rights and systemic reform like a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
