Help PA Keep Making Progress

Written by: Rick Taylor on Jun 24, 2008 1:29 PM EDT

I am grateful to have you and Democracy for America on my side. Without DFA's hard work in 2006, I would not be serving in the state legislature today; and instead of having a one seat majority in the state house, the Democrats would still be in the minority.

The good news is that because we won a majority in 2006 we have been able to make progress on the important issues: The House has passed legislation to help 270,000 uninsured workers and small businesses afford health insurance, as well as a comprehensive energy bill that will work toward getting us off our dependence on oil, and many good government reforms. None of this could have happened just two years ago when the Republicans and John Perzel were in charge.

Please help keep a Democratic majority in Harrisburg by joining with MontcoDFA and County Commissioner Joe Hoeffel at a summer picnic on Sunday, July 13 at Fort Washington State Park to support my campaign. Click the link below to reserve your place:

As you can imagine, the Republicans don't like being in the minority and are working to take this seat and the majority back. Because I am the first Democrat to ever hold this seat, they have made me their top target in the entire state. To defeat me, all factions of the fractious Montgomery County Republican party have come together.

Make no mistake, this will be a tough race; but, with your help, we can win again and send a Democratic majority back to Harrisburg to continue fighting for healthcare, alternative energy, and affordable college tuition.

Please help by joining me at the MontcoDFA Cornfest Sunday, July 13. It sounds like a great time! The invitation with all the details is below.

If you can't attend, please consider clicking the link and making a contribution to my campaign. Even small amounts add up.

My friend, Bev Hahn, asks that you try to RSVP by July 1 so she knows how much food is needed.
