Annise Parker for Houston
There
are only a few days left before Election Day in Houston. This is your
last chance to get involved and make a difference in a campaign that
will affect all of Texas.
The choice was clear from the beginning. One candidate stood out in the mayoral race and proved to be a strong progressive and a grassroots leader.
That's why I'm proud to announce Democracy for America's endorsement of Annise Parker for Mayor.

Annise knows Houston is facing tough times, but she has the experience to tackle these problems head-on and lead the city through the challenging times ahead. She's saved taxpayers millions of dollars as City Controller -- rooting out waste and fraud and reinvesting in after-school programs, public safety and new jobs.
Looking
forward, no one has a plan for Houston like Annise. She knows the best
way to lead Houston out of the recession is to build a new energy
economy for the city. And her work to "Hire Houston First" will make
sure that new jobs go to local families first.
And no one's run a grassroots campaign like hers, either. A neighborhood activist herself, her campaign puts people first and has built a coalition of progressives across the city.
Annise's experience and vision made it an easy choice for endorsement, but it's still going to take hard work to get across the finish line this week. That why we need to help Annise Parker any way we can in these final days.
HELP ELECT ANNISE PARKER THE NEXT MAYOR OF HOUSTON
