ProgressNow Colorado

Dear Neighbor,

Right now, ProgressNow Colorado's sister organization, One Wisconsin
Now, is in the middle of the fight to hold that state's right-wing
Governor Scott Walker accountable. Today, tens of thousands of
workers, students, religious groups, and concerned citizens are
turning out once again in Madison to protest Walker's attack on
teachers, nurses, social workers, and other public employees. The
standoff in Wisconsin has focused the attention of the entire nation
on the consequences of right-wing fiscal irresponsibility.

Tomorrow, Colorado stands with them. Will you join us?

What: Stand in Support of Wisconsin
Where: Colorado State Capitol, Denver
When: Tuesday, February 22, 2011 12:00PM

Here in Colorado, we are fortunate to have largely avoided the
extremist takeover of state government that's provoking the crisis in
Wisconsin. Gov. Walker of Wisconsin is manipulating his state's budget
to attack his own workers; we're gratfeul that Colorado made better
choices, and that's not what is happening here. But our state still
faces a daunting budget shortfall for the coming year, and our own
teachers, nurses, and working families across our state are going to
suffer. What Colorado needs right now is a plan for the voters to end
our state's chronic inability to pay for basic and essential
functions--once and for all.

That's our message to Colorado lawmakers, and to our friends in
Wisconsin. Join us tomorrow at the Colorado State Capitol, and let's
make sure everyone hears it.

Sincerely,

Alan Franklin
