A Note From the DCCC

Friends:
This past Friday brought yet another example of the Republicans' unbelievable disregard for democracy. Rep. Rodney Alexander (LA-05) switched his party affiliation from Democrat to Republican thirty minutes before the filing deadline.
Mr. Alexander's last minute switch was a deliberate attempt to keep the voters in his district from having a choice on November 2 because the timing of his switch made it impossible for any other serious Democratic candidates to file. His decision also showed a complete disregard for the people who supported him as a Democrat with their time and money.

This act of treachery cannot and will not stand!

DCCC Chair Robert Matsui said it best; "I hope Rodney enjoys the next 87 days in the Majority because that is all he is going to get. There will be no room in a Democratic House for a turncoat like Rodney Alexander."
In July, we launched Majority Makers - a grassroots volunteer raising and fundraising tool that allows dedicated DCCC activists to raise money and help us find activists interested in being part of our field programs. Majority Makers promotes exactly the kind of activity that Mr. Alexander's choice attempted to stifle - your ability to be a part of the democratic process by supporting candidates with money and manpower.

We need you to be part of the effort. Visit the Majority Makers homepage and start your campaign to restore a Democratic Majority to the House today and send turncoats like Rodney Alexander and Ralph Hall into the minority where they belong.

The power is in your hands to give House Democrats the resources they need to regain the Majority. With your help, together we will be successful in our Campaign and ensure that America gets its Congress back.
