Eric Massa

We're hours away from the midnight fundraising deadline.

I've identified three candidates who need your help before tonight's deadline. All three are veterans. All three are in tough districts. And all three will be familiar to you because you helped elect them to Congress.

Please help Eric Massa (NY-29), John Boccieri (OH-16), and Tim Walz (MN-1) before midnight. Contribute to their campaigns today!

Eric Massa

2008 was a historic election in so many ways. But it was also very personal for me because together we helped elect my dear friend, Eric Massa, to Congress.

Since arriving in the House, Eric has been doing exactly what I thought he would do in Congress -- fighting for those most in need. Eric is fighting for health care reform through his ardent support of a public option. Until all Americans are eligible for similar coverage, Eric will continue to refuse the use of the Congressional health benefits plan.

Eric is fighting for us every day. I need you to help him. Please contribute to Eric before tonight's midnight fundraising deadline!

John Boccieri

John Boccieri

John Boccieri won his 2008 campaign for Ohio's 16th Congressional district because of the early support from you in the WesPAC community.

John has used his seat on the House Committee on Agriculture and the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure to help protect our jobs, supporting bills benefiting businesses and taxpayers, promoting domestic production, and improving their energy efficiency.

And as a current member of the Air Force Reserves, John has witnessed up close the impacts of our country's involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan. He's an important advocate for our troops and for bringing them home in a responsible manner.

This is John's first reelection campaign, and the right wing will go after him with everything they've got. Please help him start his campaign strong and contribute today!

Tim Walz

Tim Walz

Thanks to the remarkable support of the WesPAC community, Tim Walz was given the opportunity to serve the people of Minnesota's 1st Congressional district.

As a 24-year member of the Army National Guard, Tim understands the need to increase education benefits for our soldiers. He co-sponsored the House version of Senator Jim Webb's GI Bill which was signed into law last year.

Tim was a top target of Karl Rove's last cycle. He was attacked constantly by misleading ads, but with your help, he was able fight back against the attacks. We can expect Tim to be a top target for 2010.

Please stand up for Tim Walz again. Contribute to his campaign before midnight tonight!

Eric, John, and Tim are some of our finest public servants, and I couldn't be happier that together we helped elect them to Congress.

Thank you for everything.

Sincerely,

Wes Clark

Blanche tells me she needs 200 donors in the next 7 days, and I am proud to do all I can to help her reach her goal. I urge you to take action today. Click here to contribute!

To face today's challenges and guide our country through a time of crisis, we need more good, hard-working leaders fighting for us in Washington. We need more folks like my fellow Arkansan, Blanche Lincoln.

Every day, Blanche Lincoln is fighting the good fight for all of us in the U.S. Senate, putting Arkansans back to work, fixing this economy, and keeping America safe and strong.

Blanche is up for reelection in 2010, and we've got to do everything we can to keep her in the Senate. With the June 30 quarterly fundraising deadline just around the corner, I hope you'll join me and stand with Blanche right now.

Please contribute $25, $50, or more to Sen. Blanche Lincoln. We need her in the Senate, and your support before June 30 will give Blanche a crucial boost towards victory in 2010:

Already, the pundits are all chattering about who will run against Blanche. Right now, we know the national Republican Party is searching for a strong, well-funded challenger to take her on.

Well I've always believed the best defense is a good offense. A strong showing of grassroots support at the June 30 quarterly filing deadline -- just days away -- will make these would-be challengers think twice.

Blanche tells me she needs 250 donors in the next 7 days, and I am proud to do all I can to help her reach her goal. I urge you to take action today.

Please contribute $25, $50, or more to Sen. Blanche Lincoln right this minute. We need her in the Senate, and your support before June 30 will give Blanche a critical boost towards victory in 2010:

When Senator Lincoln's refundable child tax credit first became law, she had to persuade her colleagues that millions of working families who don't earn enough to pay income taxes should not be ignored by a policy intended to end child poverty.

It's obviously a good idea, but it took Blanche's hard work, soft touch, and firm hand to get it done. We need more of that good, common-sense leadership in the U.S. Senate.

Blanche's would-be opponents don't offer alternatives when they criticize the tough choices that she is making for us. They don't promise a new direction, just more of the same Bush-Cheney policies that got us into this mess in the first place.

I am proud to support Blanche Lincoln for the U.S. Senate in 2010 -- but she needs all of our support right now. We're just a few days away from the second quarter FEC deadline, and I need your help to show Blanche's opponents that her campaign has the strength and grassroots energy to win.

Please contribute $25, $50, or more to Sen. Blanche Lincoln right this minute. We need her in the Senate, and your support before June 30 will give Blanche a critical boost towards victory in 2010:

Whether it's putting Americans back to work, fighting for our children's education, or winning energy independence from Middle Eastern oil, my friend Blanche is the one who always remembers where she came from. She's the one who doesn't forget who she went to Congress to serve.

That's why you should get behind her today. I promise you won't regret it.

Sincerely,

Wes Clark

Each Memorial Day and Veterans Day, many of us take time to recognize the sacrifices of those men and women who have served in uniform.

But around the country, these solemn holidays often end up meaning little more than a chance to buy things on sale.

Yesterday I did an event with Jill Biden for a non-partisan, non-profit group called Beyond Tribute that's launching a campaign this Memorial Day to convince stores to donate a portion of their holiday promotion proceeds to medical treatment and family support for veterans. By Veterans Day, we hope to be able to raise significant money for veterans in need from the very businesses that usually capitalize on these solemn holidays.

But before businesses will sign on, they need to see that people are committed to truly honoring, and actually helping, former service members.

Sign the Memorial Day pledge to shop at Beyond Tribute business partners today and together we can do a lot of good for some people who really need it.

When I was on active duty as a four-star general in the U.S. Army, the soldiers I commanded were serving me, and they were serving the President.

But above all, they were serving America -- all of us.

So we all owe them a debt of gratitude, especially the troops who have sacrificed their health and well-being in the line of duty.

By signing the pledge to shop at Beyond Tribute businesses during the veterans national holidays, you're doing more than making your own personal commitment to help. You're also showing businesses that their customers will reward them if they do the right thing.

Sign the pledge now.

Anyone who has served, or has a loved one who's served, knows how important this help is.

That's why people like Walter Cronkite, philanthropist Jerome Kohlberg, and Kim Cattrall (Sex and the City's Samantha) have joined Beyond Tribute with me and pledged to do their shopping at participating businesses, too.

Join us in signing the pledge to do your Veterans Day shopping at Beyond Tribute businesses, then ask your friends and family to sign the pledge, too.

The troops we honor are real people, many of whom have very real injuries. They and their families need our help to get back on their feet. This is something we can all do that will really help them.

Sincerely,

Wes Clark

Make a difference before the March 31st fundraising deadline. Support Paul Hodes in New Hampshire and Kirsten Gillibrand in New York. Donate to Paul and Kirsten's campaigns today!

There's no doubt about it: You make a difference.

With your help, WesPAC helped Democrats in 2006 take over both Houses of Congress for the first time in over a decade. And in 2008, you helped Democrats expand our majorities and take back the White House.

Now, two of those candidates you first helped elect to the U.S. House in 2006 are in critical Senate races for 2010: Paul Hodes in New Hampshire and Kirsten Gillibrand in New York. Both are facing the important March 31st fundraising deadline -- their first critical test to show the press, pundits, and their opponents that they have the support they need to win their important Senate races.

Let's make sure they pass this test. Join me and donate to Paul and Kirsten's campaigns now, before the critical March 31st fundraising deadline!

http://www.actblue.com/page/makedifference

Paul Hodes has been a leader in New Hampshire for decades. He led the first successful criminal environmental prosecution in the state. And when he arrived in Congress, he immediately got to work, passing Michelle's Law to expand health care for college kids when they get sick in school.

In New Hampshire, Democrats control the state legislature, the Governorship, both House seats, and one Senate seat. The open Senate seat that Paul is running for in 2010, being vacated by Republican Judd Gregg, is the last major GOP holdout.

Paul's race is our best opportunity to pick up a Senate seat in 2010. However, with former Republican Senator John Sununu being recruited by his father to run again, it is imperative that Paul's first quarter fundraising numbers are strong. We have to show all the political insiders -- including John Sununu -- that the GOP's tall task isn't just beating Paul, but beating a huge army of grassroots supporters standing with him.

Help Paul show New Hampshire that he's ready to be the 60th Democratic seat in the Senate. Contribute to his campaign today!

In 2006, I went up to NY-20 in the final weekend before the election to campaign with Kirsten Gillibrand. Kirsten was one of the most impressive candidates I met the entire cycle, and I was thrilled we helped her win in a tough, Republican district.

Kirsten is a strong advocate for women and has consistently voted against torture, illegal wiretapping, school vouchers, and disability discrimination. In January 2009, Kirsten was appointed to the U.S. Senate to fill Hillary Clinton's seat when Hillary became Secretary of State.

Now potential opponents are lining up to try and take this seat. And just like Paul's campaign, the media and potential opponents will look hard at this fundraising report to see if she can win.

Please make a difference again. Let's give Kirsten the early support she needs and help her close the March 31st fundraising quarter strong.

http://www.actblue.com/page/makedifference

Our Clark community first helped elect Paul and Kirsten to the U.S. House in 2006. Now let's help elect them to the U.S. Senate in 2010 -- so they can continue to serve our country in Congress.

Sincerely,

Wes Clark

Here we go again.

I know it seems we don't get much of a chance to take a breath in politics, but I can already see the forces working to try and halt the change America needs. We can't let that happen.

We worked too hard to elect Barack Obama to lead our country, to elect Eric Massa to help bring a responsible end to the occupation in Iraq, to elect Kay Hagan to help Americans face this economic crisis, along with dozens of other great candidates across the country.

WesPAC is the vehicle that allows us to fight for what we care about and to be heard on the critical issues facing our country. I need your help to ensure my voice and yours are not lost.

So help me jumpstart our efforts in 2009. Today, we're launching our Jumpstart Fund. Our goal is to raise $25,000 by Friday. Please contribute to our Jumpstart fundraising drive today!

http://securingamerica.com/jumpstart

You have always powered WesPAC and the Clark Community. Whether it's fighting for a specific piece of legislation, highlighting important issues facing our country, or helping a candidate win on Election Day, we could never do it without you.

The next year is critical. Progressives have been elected up and down the ballot to make sure government works for the people again. Sadly, many of our opponents want us to fail.

Nothing will be handed to us. We're going to have to fight to get our economy back on track. We're going to have to fight to bring our troops back home safely. And we're going to continue to find candidates to help bring this change in the coming years.

Give our efforts at WesPAC a charge to start the year. Contribute to our $25,000 Jumpstart Fund today!

http://securingamerica.com/jumpstart

I know these are tough times for many, and I can't thank you enough for your previous support. Together, we've made a difference and accomplished so much. And yet we know we have so much more we can do.

I am asking you to donate to WesPAC's Jumpstart Fund. Make sure we reach our $25,000 goal by midnight Friday!

Thank you for your support.

Wes Clark
