$10.10… It’s Good For Us All

Is it worth $10.10 to you to help elect tribunes of the people like Rick Weiland and Shenna Bellows? Take my word for it, Bernie Sanders, Alan Grayson and Elizabeth Warren can't do it by themselves. We need lots more like them.

$1,000 Matching Fund– Why Shenna?

Digby, John and Howie did not expect to send this note out today. They planned a sabbatical until after the first quarter rush was over Tuesday. But… we got an offer we couldn't refuse-- and one I hope you won't be able to either.

Why Blue America Is Taking A Time Out

For the rest of this week, you are likely to be bombarded with hysterical, desperate spam from the DCCC, DSCC and their myriad candidates. So we're not going to send any more e-mails out 'til after that circus is over.
Instead, we're offering to send a $1,000 check from our PAC to whichever House candidate our members prefer. You tell us who.

Tell the DSCC: “Your Job is to Elect Democrats, Not Susan Collins”

Shenna Bellows is going to be just as astounding a U.S. Senator as Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders. Let the DSCC waste their time and resources on anti-Choice, anti-equality, antigay, anti-environment, pro-NRA goons like Travis Childers. Let's do absolutely everything we can to elect a real progressive fighter.

Chained CPI– RIP? Now Let’s Get To Work Strengthening Social Security

Time For House Democrats To Find New Leadership

It's time to start thinking about electing a leader of the House Democrats who is NOT a conservative and who is not a pillar of institutionalized Beltway corruption.

Blue America Chained CPI Contest! Candidate Nick Ruiz Speaks Out

Remind everyone that if they go to the special Blue America "Save Social Security" page and "Vote" for their favorite quote about Saving Social Security with as little as one dollar, they are entered to win an RIAA Certified Platinum Award for the band, 311. Candidate with the most votes wins too -- a $1,000 check from Blue America.

Blue America chat: Activist Debra Cooper for New York City Council

When the Netroots first appeared in the middle of the last decade, there were a few people who instantly joined up as supporters, benefactors and activists who "got it." But no one got it more clearly than our good friend Debra Cooper, a long

Blue America, Onward And Upward: Good Guys Always Win In The End

The first time he ran for Congress, Alan Grayson lost the primary. Two years later Blue America encouraged him to run again and he did. Derided by the political Establishment in Florida and in DC, he beat their favorite in the primary and went on to beat the incumbent Republican congressman in the November general. He then went on to inspire millions of Americans desperate for political leaders who could and would stand up to the conservative consensus that dominates Beltway politics. And when Grayson lost in 2010, he started working on the 2012 race. Blue America was with him every step of the way.

Blue America Welcomes Beto O’Rourke
