Pete Sorenson's Voice of Oregon Announcement Tour: Help Spread The Word

Submitted by pete06 on December 7, 2005 - 1:50pm
  • Progressive Action Alerts
  • Oregon

If you don't already know, Pete is a Lane County Commissioner and Democratic Candidate For Governor. We've been running a progressive grassroots campaign since January, and will challenge our current Governor, Ted Kulongoski, in the May 16 Democratic Primary.

If you haven't seen our website, you can check it out: www.petesorenson.com

As the only progressive candidate running in this race, there are five things that Pete's fighting for in this campaign: full funding for public education, from Kindergarten to College; increased access to affordable health care for low income families, especially the 106,000
children in this state who are currently uninsured; campaign finance and corporate tax reform; building Oregon's knowledge economy and generating family wage jobs in this state; getting Oregon's National Guard out of Iraq.

I'm mentioning all of this to you now because on December 12 Pete will be officially filing his election papers in Salem. Starting on Friday, December 9, Pete will kick off his Voices of Oregon announcement tour in Portland and travel to 10 cities and all five congressional districts in four days.

We are calling this the Voices of Oregon Tour, and we'd like you to join us. Below, you will find a detailed itinerary of where and when Pete will be. If you know folks in these areas, please let them know as well. If you have any questions, you can contact our campaign office at 541.302.5929 or email us info@petesorenson.com

Sincerely Yours,

Shane D. Kavanaugh
Campaign Coordinator
Pete Sorenson For Governor
