Heck backs radical agenda |
|
Over the weekend, Senator Joe Heck confirmed what we suspected all along – that he is throwing his unwavering support behind Sharron Angle and her radical agenda. Senator Heck, like Sharron Angle, has long called for the privatization of Social Security and said that he does not believe it’s the role of Congress to create jobs. At the Nevada Republican Party Convention, he made his endorsement official.
The Heck-Angle agenda would gamble seniors’ Social Security in the stock market while lining the pockets of Wall Street bankers. At a time when so many Nevadans are struggling to find work, the people of District Three cannot afford the core Heck-Angle belief that it is not their job to create jobs.
Help us fight back against this radical agenda by standing with Dina Titus. She has been fighting for the people of District Three, standing up to the big banks, big oil, and big insurance companies that Senator Heck has protected his whole career. It’s clear that the stakes could not be higher as Senator Heck has gone all in endorsing Sharron Angle and an agenda that will leave Nevadans behind.
Sincerely,
Matt Lydon

Visit to CD3 by Paul Begala |
|
This week I was proud to visit Southern Nevada to support one of the hardest working Members of Congress. Since Dina’s election to the House of Representatives in 2008 her priorities have been tackling jobs and housing, the two major challenges facing District Three. Her Congressional office was one of the first in the country to help homeowners stand up to the banks, saving hundreds of families from foreclosure.
Dina is being challenged by a conservative Republican who stands against all that she has accomplished in her year in Congress. Senator Joe Heck, who dropped out of the Governors race when he was polling at one percent, says we are heading towards a “socialist tyranny”.
This is what we are up against and why I am here to ask that you contribute $25, $50, $100, or more today. Dina needs your help to stand up to the more than $1.5 million dollars that National Tea Party allies are spending lying about Dina’s record.

Yesterday, I wrote to thank you for all that you have done for this campaign and for helping me get through our Primary Election. Little did we know at that moment the Republicans in Washington and the Tea Partiers around the country were preparing to unveil their latest smear campaign.
Today, we woke up to another misleading $100,000 television ad that distorts the facts and attacks me for voting for health care legislation. The fact is the reform I supported ends discrimination for pre-existing conditions, improves Medicare Advantage for our seniors, and lowers costs. These types of attacks will not end until Election Day and now more than ever I need you to make a financial contribution to our campaign.
Help us match their $100,000 television buy before the end of June. Contribute $25, $50, $100, or more. Together we can stand up to the special interests that are funding Senator Heck’s campaign and doing the dirty work for him.

Last night, I proudly accepted my party’s nomination for re-election to the United States House of Representatives. I was humbled by the support that I received from the voters in CD3, and I look forward to continuing our fight together.
I have spent my entire career fighting for middle-class Nevadans, those who have been taken advantage of by greedy Wall Street banks and squeezed by insurance companies. That is why I voted against TARP and the bailouts and voted to block pay raises for members of Congress.
But I will need your continued support to stand up to the special interests that are funding Senator Heck’s campaign. Please contribute $10, $25, $50, or $100 before the end of the day to beat our deadline and show the country we are ready to fight.

In a continued effort to stay in touch, I want to be sure that you are aware of all the ways I am communicating with my supporters. With so much happening both in Washington and in the District, please know that I am always just a phone call, letter, email, Facebook message, or tweet away.
As the campaign heats up, I ask that you continue to stand by me and stand up for what we believe in. I look forward to staying in touch and seeing you on the campaign trail.
Sincerely,
Dina |

WOW!!!! If you think Nevada Democrats are feeling down and out after Tuesday’s Massachusetts election, you should have been with us on Saturday. Over 350 people gathered at the Painters Hall for an informal campaign kickoff barbeque. To those of you who could join us, thanks for coming; it was great to see you. And for those who couldn’t, we missed you but we’ll be having lots more get-togethers in the months ahead as we prepare for November.
 While we were all disappointed with the loss of Senator Kennedy’s seat, we are fired up about moving ahead. We need to pass the very best health and insurance reform bill that we can. Then we’ve got to roll up our sleeves and get to work creating jobs. Putting people back to work and turning this economy around are top priorities. We must bring prosperity back to Main Street with job training, job creation, and job growth here in Nevada and across the nation.
I need your support more than ever as we undertake these monumental tasks.
As always,
Dina |
