There are a couple of events this week- see column on right below.
End of year fundraiser ! Help this great newsletter with a much needed donation at the end of the year! With the tough economy of these past couple of years, we've had very low $ fundraisers but we've soldiered on keeping folks informed about events and news especially for progressive North Texans. NO ONE does what we do ! Sure you can get on a Democratic club email list or Facebook but that will only tell you about events happening in that one designated area, we will tell you about ALL local events - happy hour events happening near work or events happening by friends and family on the weekends, that you are welcome to attend. Do you want to have to subscribe to 10 email lists and read every one of them ? Just let us aggregate it all for you! We also DO NOT limit news to only Democrats-- we use "Progressive " and we mean it. We bring you news from many independent groups, as well as news of all important protests or actions that may not be connected to electoral politics but are of great social, environmental and/or economic good. Many of our members date back to original email / online communities that were connected to Progressive radio of the past - both of the 2 past local radio station attempts and Air America Radio. This group's origins lie in promoting alternative news sources and we've seen great changes since 2004 when Air America first signed on the air but the need is still great for alternatives to the crappy mainstream news ! Yes --we will celebrate our 10th anniversary in 2014! Amazing! There are still few ways to get out progressive news and information and we do everything we can to include all local events in the free weekly e-newsletter and then we try to follow up on events with some pictures or report on how the events went. We are always happy to help promote local events on Facebook and Twitter . This year will be big for our country and Texas and we will be very busy fighting for Wendy Davis running against all odds to become the next Texas Governor and to get folks elected that will help turn this state around! The mid-term national elections will decide what real progress President Obama can make with the Democrats in Congress in advancing his agenda in his last 2 years of his presidency. Just a few things we need to work on in 2014: Voter suppression Women's health and reproductive freedom LGBT rights and marriage equality Expanding ACA/ Obamacare - public option! Environment and global climate change This newsletter will be out there every single week doing everything we can for North Texas Democrats & Progressives to get them ready, get them informed, get them mobilized and get them inspired ! All we need is your help! Please donate to the newsletter ( for every $20 you donate) you will earn a chance at our next fundraiser to win wonderful raffle prizes.
