email from Barbara Boxer -- good news! |
|
Last May, I announced my intention to run for re-election to the U.S. Senate in 2010. I'm excited to be running again, but I know it’s going to be a tough campaign.
So what better way could we have ended 2007 than by meeting -- and exceeding -- our $50,000 end-of-year grassroots fundraising goal?
I'm so grateful to the hundreds and hundreds of friends from our BarbaraBoxer.com community who contributed and helped us break the $50,000 grassroots fundraising mark, demonstrating the strong support for our campaign even at this early point.
After all, it's never too early to start preparing for a tough race, especially when we know that the right-wing has been eyeing my Senate seat ever since I took office in 1993. They come after us every time I run for re-election, and they'll be on the offensive for 2010 soon.
But knowing that I have the support of people like you inspires me to keep speaking out against the war in Iraq, defending a woman's right to choose, and fighting to stop global warming. I'm able to stand up for California and all Americans because I know you and all the members of our wonderful BarbaraBoxer.com community are standing with me.
We have some tough battles ahead -- right now, we're challenging the Bush Administration's baseless decision to prohibit California from enacting stronger vehicle emissions standards and slowing global warming. Thank you so much for emailing EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson, urging him to reverse his decision -- if you haven't already, please click here to encourage your friends to do the same.
I'll be in touch with you more in the weeks and months to come to keep you posted on how you can speak out on issues that we care about, but in the meantime I just wanted to thank you for your continued support and wish you a Happy New Year! Thanks again to everyone who contributed. Let's make 2008 even better than 2007!
In Friendship,
Barbara Boxer U.S. Senator
