ALEC must be working overtime. A letter from Marc Pocan, who is running for Tammy Baldwin's seat as she runs to replace Herb Kohl in the Senate.
Dear Jackpine, I’ve got some bad news. Remember the kickoff fundraiser planned for this Thursday? We’ve had to reschedule it to December 15th 5:30-7:30 at the Puempel’s Olde Tavern on 6th Avenue in New Glarus.
Once again, Governor Walker and the Republican Legislature are playing underhanded games with the law to keep Democrats at bay. As long as we are in a “Special Session,” Elected officials aren't allowed to hold fundraisers in Dane County. The fact is, we’ve been in “Special Session” for the last 10 months straight. What was once an emergencies-only tool to convene legislators has become a trick Governor Walker uses to keep Dems from raising any funds. We aren’t going to let Governor Walker’s tricks deter us. We will continue building momentum and plan to move our fundraiser right outside of Dane County in New Glarus. The new date is December 15th at Puempel’s Olde Tavern on 18 6th Avenue in New Glarus. Will you join me in standing up to Wisconsin Republicans and pledge to attend my fundraiser, virtually or in-person? Click here to RSVP and buy your tickets in advance. This campaign has been built off of the grassroots support from individuals like you, and I need your backing now more than ever. Please go online here to pledge your support for my kick-off fundraiser. Sincerely, Mark Pocan
