RE: WEEKLY FIELD UPDATE
PDA TO HELP LEAD IMPEACHMENT EFFORT! As PDA grassroots leadership, you're getting a sneak preview of an exciting announcement that will hit early next week! PDA is partnering with Democrats.com to lead a unified national movement to impeach Bush and Cheney! On Monday, PDA Board Members will be sending the letter posted below with a call for national support of our work.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To our Progressive Friends:
PDA grassroots activists from across the country are challenging PDA to step up and help lead the call for the impeachment of George W. Bush.
We’ve heard you and we’re taking action!
PDA Executive Director, Tim Carpenter; PDA Advisory Board Chair, Mimi Kennedy; and PDA Advisory Board Members, Medea Benjamin, John Bonifaz, Steve Cobble, Jodi Evans, Cindy Sheehan, David Swanson, and Rev. Lennox Yearwood will be joining forces with Democrats.com to lead the charge! But, to do our part effectively, PDA needs your help.
First, we need your “heat in the streets” stories! We need your first-hand accounts of how you’ve taken action locally to stand against the war and in opposition to Bush and his devastating policies. We need stories of inspiration to motivate others! Please send your stories to: heat@pdamerica.org.
Secondly, we need you to join PDA leadership in an “Impeach Bush & Cheney!” working group that will help to lay out the campaign strategy and to take it nationwide. To join this working group, email: impeach@pdamerica.org.
And finally, we need your financial support. We’ll need money for promotional materials (including bumper sticker, buttons, lapel stickers, etc.), printing, travel, expenses for meetings and events, additional staff support, etc. To support this vital work, go to:
https://www.pdamerica.org/donate.php Please give today!
https://www.pdamerica.org/donate.php The faster the money comes in… the faster PDA can move to lead the charge to “Impeach Bush & Cheney! "
PDA’s grassroots activists have spoken and national leadership is responding, but we need your support to make it happen. Send your stories… join the “Impeach Bush” working group… and donate generously!
https://www.pdamerica.org/donate.php Together we can do it!
It's time to end the occupation of Iraq.
It's time to impeach Bush and Cheney!
In peace,
PDA Executive Director, Tim Carpenter
