HISTORIC DEMOCRATIC ACCOMPLISHMENTS

HISTORIC DEMOCRATIC ACCOMPLISHMENTS Every one of the following programs/laws were initiated by Democratic administrations and were passed despite the objections of most Republicans. |
42 More GRASSROOTS Donors Are Needed to keep our JCDP HQ Office open - WE NEED YOU!!! Please Join and Donate - $5 or $10 a Month will make a difference...or More If You Can.
"Our Treasurer Anna Dale Williamson tells me we are now down to 42 donors who are giving a total of $985 per month, an average of $24.02 per donor. Some give $5 or $10 a month, others more." "...whether we can keep our headquarters open is subject to a whole lot of doubt. Our current 3-year lease is up in April and right now, we don't have the resources to maintain it beyond that date." -- Allen Hallmark, Chair JCDP
We need to double our number of Grass Roots to 84 donors. Even in this terrible recession,
surely YOU and 42 MORE local Democrats are willing to give $5 or more a month to keep our local party organization solvent.
If you are not yet a GRASSROOTS donor -- become one RIGHT NOW!!

Become a Precinct Committeeperson (PCP)
The 2008 general election and the election of President Barack Obama energized more people and drew them to our Democratic Party than any election in memory. President Obama even won here in Jackson County where Republicans outnumber Democrats by several thousand voters.
The question now becomes: How do we build on that success and turn Jackson County "blue"? My answer is: By getting more Democrats to become PCPs and working together to make it happen.
Bill Bradbury Proposal to Move State's Money
Bill Bradbury, Oregon Gubernatorial Candidate, Wants To Move State's Money
From huffingtonpost.com, Feb. 8, 2010
Bill Bradbury, a Democratic candidate for governor in Oregon, is campaigning largely on a proposal to move the state's money out of national banks and into local Oregon banks. His message to the big banks on Wall Street: Phooey!
"There's a whole lot of anger because we bailed them out and now they won't lend," said Bradbury in an interview with the Huffington Post. "You're not seeing lending to small- and medium-sized businesses. So, phooey! Phooey! Let's just do it ourselves."
Since Bradbury announced his proposal to create a "Bank of Oregon" on Jan. 20, he said he has gotten an overwhelmingly positive response from both Republicans and Democrats.
