[soon to come-- Real Majority Rensselaer, Real Majority Warren, Real Majority Washington, Real Majority Essex, Real Majority Greene, Real Majority Delaware, Real Majority Otsego; updates soon]

Here were my campaign kickoff events yesterday to launch our Real Majority group in Saratoga County:

-- (Weds. Aug. 10th) at 11 am at MoveOn "Where are the Jobs" Rally at Albany's Capital West Park with Rep. Paul Tonko and Upstate NY MoveOn.org Coordinator Joe Seeman and many more
 
-- (Weds. Aug. 10th) at 4:30 pm at MoveOn "Where Are the Jobs" Rally at Saratoga Springs' office of Chris Gibson (513 Broadway)-- http://activistresource.org/calendar/cal_event.php?id=16169
["A demonstration outside of the Saratoga office of Congressman Chris Gibson (NY-20), protesting his labor/economic voting record. Give Chris Gibson some ideas on how to create jobs and ask him why he voted for a budget that would cause the loss of 700,000 more jobs."]

Note ten polls just below-- irrefutable proof that Gibson has been ignoring what most Americans want.
I know I can win by replicating successful campaign strategy employed by Kathy Hochul in 26th.

[I had crowd of 80 Dems at Columbia County Dem picnic singin' and chantin' along with me this past Sunday in Greenport-- "say it with some authority-- WE ARE THE REAL MAJORITY"!...c'mon, folks!]

Gibson has no excuse for voting July 19th for the House GOP majority's Cut, Cap, and Kill Medicare bill-- a stealth attack on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid that would destroy 700,000 jobs (aside from his voting for House Budget Committee Chair Paul Ryan's draconian budget earlier this year:
http://www.afscme.org/news/press-room/press-releases/statement-of-afscme-pres-mcentee-in-response-to-house-republicans-passing-their-cut-cap-and-kill-medicare-bill .

Yes, Chris Gibson is a good man-- but in no way, shape, or form is he standing up for us on these ten:

Fact #1: 81% of Americans support taxing millionaires/billionaires more to solve federal budget problems.

Fact #2: 78% of Americans support protecting Medicare, Social Security, and Medicaid from any cuts.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/poll-shows-americans-oppose-entitlement-cuts-to-deal-with-debt-problem/2011/04/19/AFoiAH9D_story.html

Fact #3: 59% of Americans support expanding Medicare to cover us all-- to save $400 billion a year.

Fact #4: 67% of Americans support $10-an-hour minimum wage to put money in pockets of working class.

Fact #5: 53% of Americans support full federal funding for Planned Parenthood and reproductive justice.

Fact #6: More New Yorkers support protecting our drinking water with statewide ban on fracking than not.

Fact #7: 54% of Americans support full funding for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency-- not cuts.

Fact #8: 79% of New Yorkers support Clean Money Clean Elections-- real campaign finance reform.

Fact #9: 80% of Americans support amending the Constitution to make it clear-- corporations aren't people.

Fact #10: 59% of Americans support our troops coming home from Afghanistan and Iraq now without delay.

[see http://www.RebuildtheDream.com -- massive MoveOn/AFL-CIO coalition we're working with--
http://acivilamericandebate.wordpress.com/2011/07/18/rebuilding-the-american-dream/ ; I spoke last month at Rhinecliff Hotel MoveOn/RebuildtheDream.com gathering before 50+ here in Dutchess]

Pass it on!...

444-0599/876-2488

p.s. Still pertinent-- FDR didn't get us out of Depression with budget cuts, layoffs, and union-busting!...

[I'll be walking CWA picket line again this morning in Dutchess; walked CWA line up in Albany yesterday!]


[on that note-- I was successful in getting my colleagues, County Legislators Dan Kuffner, Barbara Jeter-Jackson, Alison MacAvery, Steve White, Jim Doxsey, to sign on to my CWA solidarity letter Mon.:
http://dutchessdemocracy.blogspot.com/2011/08/new-cwa-solidarity-letter-here-email.html : crucial; both Tuesday and this past Friday morning I also attended huge CWA rallies in Poughkeepsie, P. Valley]

[again: must-read: "Verizon Showdown Calls for New Strike Tactics" In These Times/CWA's Steve Early:

[see http://CWA1120.org for much, much, more on this, and http://www.HVALF.org get active, people!]

["Over the last four years, Verizon has made $19 billion in profits while paying its top five executives $250 million in compensation and bonuses. Verizon made dramatic concessionary demands to kick off bargaining and never moved.  Now you are refusing to bargain with the CWA & the IBEW.  That's why 45,000 of your employees aren't at work, but will return once you agree to bargain fairly.  Please drop your unfair demands and return to the bargaining table to negotiate a new contract in good faith."]

"County Dems Meet Their Candidates" By W.T. Eckert
Hudson-Catskill Newspapers

HUDSON - Columbia County Democrats gathered Sunday for the 58th annual Columbia County Democratic Committee Picnic at the Federation of Polish Sportsmen to meet its candidates in this November's elections.

Mingling over hot dogs, corn on the cob and frosty beverages, candidates and their supporters had the opportunity to get to know one another and the issues that mattered most to them.
Opposing first-term Rep. Chris Gibson, a Republican, in next year's congressional race, is Dutchess County Legislator Joel Tyner.
"Are we going to take this district back?" Tyner asked the crowd. "I can't do it without you. We need to set up real majority organizations in the 10 [counties in the 20th District]. We need a real majority organization in Columbia County."

"Dem Confirms Congressional Run"

Joel Tyner, a Democrat who serves on the Dutchess County Legislature, confirmed he will announce his candidacy for Congress at a rally at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday outside the Saratoga Springs district office of U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson, R-Kinderhook.

Tyner said he lives about 15 or 20 minutes from the Franklin D. Roosevelt National Historic Site and wants to bring FDR's policies back to prominence.

Tyner, first elected to the county legislature in 2003, is serving his fourth two-year term on the county legislature, a comparable government body to county boards of supervisors in the Glens Falls region.

Read more about his candidacy on Wednesday in The Post-Star print and Kindle editions.

"Gibson May Have Dem Challenger"

U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson, R-Kinderhook, apparently has his first potential Democratic challenger in the 2012 election cycle.

MoveOn.org, a liberal political advocacy organization, announced that Dutchess County Legislator Joel Tyner, "Democratic candidate for Congress for the 20th District" will speak at a rally at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday outside Gibson's district office at 513 Broadway in Saratoga Springs.

Watch the All Politics is Local blog for more information, and read The Post-Star on Tuesday.
