How would you like to see California organized?

Dear Arnaldo:

My name is Mary Jane Stevenson, and I'm the new California State Director for Organizing for America. Our records show that you live in California's 23rd district.

Since Inauguration Day, Organizing for America has been dedicated to making real the change we fought for during the election. But to be successful, we need to hear from you -- your effort and commitment are the backbone of this movement and this organization.

That's why I'm so excited to announce that we're back on the ground in California, where we'll be hosting Listening Tour Town Halls across the state starting next week.
Will you make your voice heard and join us on the Listening Tour?

At Listening Tour meetings, you'll get a chance to meet new state staff members, hear about some lessons learned during the general election, and offer your thoughts on how we can organize California going forward. Your ideas will be used to write a California-specific plan for Organizing for America in 2009 and beyond.

The campaign brought an unprecedented number of new voices into the process -- we need to make sure those voices remain at the center of the debate as the President and Congress work on providing solutions for our economy.

But these meetings are not just for folks who were involved in the campaign -- we're hopeful that every Californian will get involved.

We can't stop growing our movement now. We've never had a better opportunity to shape our future -- and just like during the election, we'll do it from the bottom up.

I look forward to seeing you,

Mary Jane Stevenson
California State Director - Organizing for America

P.S. -- If you can't make it to a Listening Tour event, you can still get involved with Organizing for America in California.
