KEY BLOCK----- ::: ProgressNow - Building the online progressive movement state by state ::: February, 2011 When I took the job at ProgressNow and ProgressNow Education to be the Executive Director, I already knew our state partners were shining examples of progressive success. But the past month has seriously impressed me - and I'm sure you'll be impressed as well. While many of us have felt like spending these gray post-election days curled up on the couch, eating carbs and pretending it was 2009, the ProgressNow affiliates got back up and back in the ring without missing a beat. Our states have been hammering the right, standing up to smear campaigns and teaching new and experienced activists and allies skills for surviving and thriving in the 21st century. Trust me, after reading this you'll be convinced to drop the Pringles and get back to the gym to train for the next fight. Here's a synopsis of some of their work - and feel free to call me or email me with any questions, comments or ideas for how we can help you or your organization build for progressive success. Best, Denise Cardinal Executive Director ProgressNow and ProgressNow Education What we did! Beck and Limbaugh came after us in PENNSYLVANIA. Over in FLORIDA, they stole the story from Ralph Reed and Dick Morris. The Washington Post published a story about a NEBRASKA state effort. Think budget problems in a swing state like WASHINGTON might matter? How many people got smarter because of FLORIDA? And in WISCONSIN they even got to SUE the bad guys. Read on for more ProgressNow accomplishments: ProgressNow Colorado http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=vrDr_srNZ8NfAAqCzuZGuQ.. Newly elected Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler has a history as an attorney representing some of the most politically controversial right wing attack groups and candidates in Colorado. Learning of plans by Gessler to "moonlight" part time for his old law firm while serving as Secretary of State, ProgressNow Colorado led the demand by citizens across the state for Gessler to abandon this plan, fraught with conflicts of interest and the possibility of harm to fair elections in state. The petition effort, joined by thousands of Colorado residents, dominated press coverage of the controversy. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=aFRAEZ8d_TCGRp7UDSoSCA.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=xuBrvHX0WDbq0M6Z_7cV-Q.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=pF_0iH1pCl1UyD2wH34Ziw.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=q1cjqif3BI29QNYtA3ISUg.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=P0w0kiOp3YGfvCHzv-r3yA.. Progress Florida http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=LfdalVlKFZGrWJ_zTV2hkQ.. Damn, that was quick. St. Petersburg Times education reporter Ron Matus, upon hearing that Progress Florida's Stop Scott's Private Voucher Scheme petition had surpassed 10,000 signatures. ProgressFlorida launched the Save Our Schools campaign with a petition drive and Facebook page, targeting Gov. Rick Scott and his recently proposed universal private school voucher scheme. Numerous organizations including Public Education Matters, Floridians Against Rick Scott, Florida New Majority, and others forwarded our alert to their own networks helping us educate more than 130,000 Floridians about Gov. Scott's attack on public education. We also took the story away from rightwing foot soldiers, including Dick Morris and Ralph Reed, by highlighting their radical agenda for Florida's schools. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=GRFt8-WpbsR13mU2ShQq0Q.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=jEq0BcVlqXoWPi4kr61Csw.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=20mpRKfgwDLHqlPaDbi3Mw.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=MuU2dWsDAAUwGwIxGMe94w.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=o39YAojZf17fDqJwV2dW8g.. ProgressMichigan http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=eeFFm-kGIPZ71y5H0n-nsA.. From throwing a media spotlight on Michigan's Fred Upton and his attack on Clean Air Act enforcement as the new U.S. House Energy Chair, to organizing labor and progressive reaction to Republican Governor Rick Snyder's State of the State address, Progress Michigan worked behind the scenes developing aggressive January earned media and online advocacy effort for its partners, serving a vital role in a state where we need to keep fighting strong on our side. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=cpwnk_0T-J0R8zFNgU_K5A.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=RTVKPJc133-n2RuaERtcpg.. Bold Nebraska http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=X8rbI3FC5FBg4Vt9m94STg.. Bold Nebraska was featured in the Washington Post for it's fantastic organizing work to stop the TransCanada tar sands pipeline. Because of Bold Nebrask's work, three bills have been introduced to regulate the project - a stark contrast when just months ago every state senator and the Governor told the press they had "no role" in ensuring pipeline regulation and safety. Almost half of Nebraska's state legislature (both R and D) sent a joint letter to Sec. Clintonurging her to do more studies before deciding on the permit to allow the pipeline to be built. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=AbIPDq-ftxCYk7TDabOM2w.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=dmXYHW4BXYiwbqtV40Oumg.. Granite State Progress http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=FtQ3MtXdUKhm3INx49zcCA.. Granite State Progress has been hard at work to launch Camp Courage, two weekends of an intensive training on how to talk to our legislators, friends, family and community members about the importance of equality through our own stories and experiences. Based on the model developed by the Courage Campaign, these trainings across New Hampshireempowered individuals to have "Courageous Conversations" about their personal reasons for supporting marriage equality. Working in local teams, we established ways to strengthen equality in our community and at the State House, one person at a time. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=l_IwLL3a1u8-HfUoK79PkA.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=6SsbVymyIar5SARSKiDiKQ.. ProgressNow Nevada http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=xOd2ZcG3j-LP9f97FvTtGg.. ProgressNow Nevada has worked to organize and mobilize the Nevada Values Coalition with hundreds of thousands of members and social service clients seeking balanced solutions to the state's budget crisis. The coalition has garnered significant coverage in statewide press. ProgressNow Nevada Action highlighted freshman U.S. Representative Joe Heck's vote to repeal health insurance reform and showcase the hypocrisy of the congressman's own insurance coverage =96 while too many Nevadans go without. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=GZOyJL5bUA0QD2NIWorZPg.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=4STiH0Dosbc3dErdGDX3yg.. ProgressOhio http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=WcEiaOAVxuukTtBYlypyrg.. ProgressOhio's list of work in January includes connecting and assisting dozens of progressive allies in the state - including the Ohio AFL-CIO, Summit County Progressives, the Legislative Progressive Caucus, PIRG and the Buckeye Forest council. Like so many states, Ohio's budget has taken center stage and ProgressOhio is at the center of the fight. Taking on the role of communications for the One Ohio Now budget coalition group led to hundreds of participants at the kickoff event and great news coverage as the legislature got to work. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=UGgzTApz_q9WaAIVW8_yuw.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=TV_aeDisDVEOYxjTsUgMBg.. Keystone Progress http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=1jKlV9qoAlft3hZJxMdGaw.. Keystone Progress organized the second Pennsylvania Progressive Summit in Pittsburgh. It was attended by over 400 people, including more than 20 current and former elected officials. The Summit included 72 workshops with keynote speaker Rev. Jesse Jackson, who inspired and motivated the crowd. The event has since been attacked by right wing media, including Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh who targeted Rev. Jackson's remarks, and the Pittsburgh Tribune Review who editorialized against PA State Education Association's sponsorship of the Summit. (We know we're doing something right when Beck and Limbaugh come after us!) http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=runPMa5IEo6qOBsXfgICeg.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=DCC7S2W54Jaw6YGiwhRHUg.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=5q36wl6l63jLKj8DvcD0sA.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=-xabr9KxQ1jGGU9CVrNIaA.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=qhPNQl5NhAwNkmA95UA03Q.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=ar4PO5uxK7ULyZQPQQg3eQ.. Fuse Washington http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=K_mPYjhRdw-SdeL_Enr7VQ.. Fuse Washington is the coalition lead for budget work framing the solutions in terms that favor our side. Our work makes sure everyone knows what they stand for on the other side: tax loopholes for corporations, cutting health care coverage for families and growing class sizes for your kids. News coverage is reflecting this frame, changing the debate in a big way. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=AXfURGT2IIgV0NxZlpgDLw.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=QVZgXU0sI-P7e6IGBbOCVQ.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=1tUTJ4SDqctzD5M6yV_heg.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=A9uaHp3dOIFgEoTtQo0pXA.. One Wisconsin Now http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=I0-usL7UBntHH7R67bN9fw.. One Wisconsin Now began 2011 hosting "Rock the Pantry," a progressive rally and music event attended by over 350 to counter the inaugural events of the new conservative governor and legislative majorities in Wisconsin. One Wisconsin Now's successful fundraiser for Wisconsin food pantries contrasted with Gov. Scott Walker's partisan campaign and Republican Party fundraiser in the media, including television, radio and print.One Wisconsin Now was at the heart of a national news story when right wing Juneau County District Attorney Scott Southworth told a school that teaching age appropriate sexual education coursework was a form of "sexual assault of children." After filing a lawsuit against Southworth when he failed to fulfill an open records request about email communications between himself and ultra-conservative extremist organizations, he settled the case in January, turned over the records and paid One Wisconsin Now's full legal fees and statutory damages. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=ZSs_N6l5pN4haZagxp7Law.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=WtMAXNbiQW4hhD1YfI0njQ.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=c87xYY6xD_ZpwqEog_4i6A.. http://www.pnstate.org/site/R?i=AbPSAT0VuSLCQMZtAc-j-w.. ::: Copyright 2010 ProgressNow Change your e-mail preferences or unsubscribe: http://www.pnstate.org/site/CO?i=Wz5Fv0DBkhDoL9u8SRKwVa1B436Gf0WN&cid=0
