If you haven't already, please join Democracy for Montgomery County. Democracy for America emerged from Gov. Howard Dean's presidential campaign in 2004, and has organized grass-roots activists to support socially progressive, fiscally responsible candidates from coast to coast and at every level of government.
DFMC is Democracy for Montgomery County, a local DFA-inspired organization which is not directly or legally affiliated with DFA. DFMC has organized events and meetings; and endorsed and organized volunteers for several candidates. DFMC is currently seeking additional steering committee members. Please contact me, mikehersh@mikehersh.com if you're interested.
DFMC will be endorsing and working for candidates, organizing on issues, hosting events, and otherwise supporting progressive issues and campaigns as DFMC and working in coalitions with other organizations through the end of 2009 and into the State election year 2010.
We're very close to the end of 2009, and gearing up for an exciting, important 2010. To achieve everything we should, to expand and extend our meetings, forums, outreach, and support for the best candidates, we ask you to become a paying member of DFMC now.
Paying members will be eligible to serve on committees (including the new steering committee), participate in charting our course into the next year including formulating the process through which we will nominate candidates and voting to endorse candidates for office in 2010.
Paying members will also participate in our planning and decision-making processes governing our role in state and local elections. Committees will study and make recommendations for DFMC's positions on issues facing all levels of government including: health policy, transportation and land use, energy and environment, equality under the law, accurate and transparent elections, clean politics including public campaign financing and other fundamental changes in access to our government, affordable housing, access to needed services, protection from public or private violations of basic rights, respect and support for all members of our community--regardless of race, age, gender, sexual identity, national origin, creed, denomination, religion or lack thereof. As a paying member, you will participate in our process, establishing our priorities, allocating our resources, making a real difference.
Please become a paying member of DFMC (low cost of $25 per year--only $2.08 per month) to see and participate in the changes you want to see in Montgomery County and Maryland. In appreciation for your support, we will provide full membership benefits to you from the time we receive payment until the end of 2010.
