[em]Next up in support of our moneybomb this week is the House Democratic Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. Leader Pelosi is a progressive champion, the first female Speaker of the House, and the most powerful Democrat in the House of Representatives. Here are some remarks that Leader Pelosi made about our Congressman with Guts, Rep. Alan Grayson.
[/em]

“When the Supreme Court issued its wrongheaded [em]Citizens United[/em] decision and opened the floodgates to unlimited, secret, corporate dollars in our campaigns, Alan Grayson stood up on national television, and expressed his deep concern and his love for our democracy.

He stood up for the democracy our founders intended: A government of the many, not a government of the money.

For his courage, Congressman Grayson became a target of special interest spending, but he never stopped fighting – even after millions in outside funds succeeded in removing him from office.

Alan Grayson refused to back down.

He ran again.

He raised money from grassroots and small donors.

And he won .

Now he’s continuing the fight. [link:https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/0714moneybomb?refcode=072514Du&amount=20.14&recurring=48|]

No matter where you live, whether [you’re] in Florida’s 9th Congressional District or in communities nationwide, you can count on Alan Grayson – but only as long as he can count on us .

Please join the 100,000 people who have backed his campaign so far.

Please show your support for Alan Grayson today.

With your help, we can keep him in Congress, fighting for you."

[em]Leader Pelosi sums it up quite nicely: “You can count on Alan Grayson – but only as long as he can count on us.” [/em]

[em]Ain’t that the truth?

With special interests and corporate crooks ready to spend millions to defeat Alan Grayson, he’s going to need our help now more than ever.

[link:https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/0714moneybomb?refcode=072514Du&amount=20.14&recurring=48|Let’s make sure we can count on him in 2015, 2016, and beyond.

Contribute today to the Congressman you can count on: Alan Grayson.

Sincerely,

Team Grayson

Are you? We need to be vocal before Hillary hands us over to the Corporate criminals and pushes our beloved party further to the Right marginalizing true liberal issues.
