Democrats have a good story to tell heading into next year’s election. We have emerged from a period of turmoil when a pandemic upended our lives and Trump led an assault on democracy. Nationally, the Biden administration has managed a strong economic recovery, while Minnesota’s economy is among the best in the nation.
In both the state and the nation, major pieces of legislation have been enacted. Nationally, we’re investing in infrastructure and unprecedented action against climate change, contributing to millions of new jobs. Our Minnesota “trifecta” resulted in a raft of new legislation that is bringing us universal school lunches, paid family and medical leave, historic funding for public schools and rural broadband, and tuition-free college for low- and middle-income families, just to name a few.
Meanwhile, Republicans are fomenting culture wars, promoting tax cuts for the rich, and spreading falsehoods about our elections that pose a direct threat to democracy.
The choice is clear. We need to elect candidates who put the needs of our people and our communities first. That means reelecting Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, and our own Rep. Heather Keeler.
To win next year, we need to tell our story. That will require both time and money. Volunteers will be needed to help turn out the vote, and we hope you’ll join the effort. To effectively coordinate that work will require funds to rent an office and then to staff it.
We need your support to reach our goal of raising $5000 through this drive. To make your donation, go to https://secure.actblue.com/donate/claydflpromo, or send a check to Clay County DFL, P. O. Box 161, Moorhead, MN 56561. Please do it today.
Giving brings its own rewards, but we also want to show our appreciation. For a contribution of $50 or more, you can receive one of these celebratory coffee mugs.
And we still have a few t-shirts left over from our last Fall fundraiser, so while supplies last, we’ll throw in one of those if you contribute $100.
As an additional benefit, any amount you give above the value of your gift(s) is eligible for Minnesota’s Political Contribution Refund (PCR) program, and you can receive a refund of up to $50 for an individual or $100 for a married couple. Please give generously.
Next year, you will no doubt want to contribute to candidates, so it makes all the more sense to give to the Clay County DFL in the off year of 2023 as we work to lay the foundations for a robust get-out-the-vote effort.
