This year, Governor Dean is asking Democrats to get their hands dirty. We’re dedicating our annual Democratic Reunion to an effort that is critically important-the fight for a cleaner environment.
Each year Democrats come together at Democratic Reunion events to build a stronger party. Last summer, we knocked on doors in thousands of neighborhoods right before the 2006 elections. We were supporting the important work of organizers on the ground, putting the 50-State Strategy into action and helping win back Congress in November.
This year Democrats across the country will plant trees, clean up parks and streams, and start recycling programs. We’ll also plant the seeds of something bigger-the effort to take back the White House in 2008. We told our members in an email today: "Let’s work on making our towns greener places to live-it’s a good start to cleaning up the Republican mess in Washington."
At the Democratic Reunion website Democrats can plan or find events in their own communities using Partybuilder, the Democratic Party’s social networking system.
There’s a lot of momentum on our side right now. Governor Dean just signed Al Gore’s Live Earth pledge, and Speaker Pelosi’s legislative agenda makes energy independence a top priority. We hope you can join us on July 28.
I proudly work for Governor Dean at the DNC.
