We'll fly you to DC

Friend -- The holiday season is when I like to take a moment and reflect on all the great things I got to be a part of this year. For my family, the birth of my daughter makes the top of the list. And when I look back on what the last 11 months were like for our party, I can say one thing for certain: 2013 was a damn good year to be a Democrat. We won huge, historic elections in races across the country, we reauthorized the Violence Against Women Act, we expanded affordable, quality health care options, and just this week we took steps to overcome Republican obstruction in the Senate by reforming the filibuster. None of this would have been possible without supporters like you, so thank you for a great year. And frankly, we'd all like a chance to thank you in person. So chip in $10 or whatever you can right now, and you will be automatically entered to win a trip to Washington, D.C. for our holiday party. We'll put you and a guest up in one of D.C.'s great old, stately hotels, take you on a nighttime tour to make sure you see the sights decorated for the holidays, have lunch at the historic Mount Vernon estate, and meet with Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, communications director Mo Elleithee, and a whole bunch of other people who would like a chance to shake your hand and thank you for all your support throughout this year. So cheers to many victories -- let's celebrate together, and get ready for another successful year for Democrats in 2014: https://my.democrats.org/DC-For-The-Holidays See you soon, Jordan Jordan Kaplan Finance Director Democratic National Committee P.S. -- Your flight and hotel are on us, so don't worry about any of that.

You won't BELIEVE what the Senate just did

Senate Democrats Just Took a Stand Against Republican Obstructionism This group of GOP senators has done so much to stand in the way of President Obama's executive and judicial choices that they're responsible for nearly half of all filibusters against presidential nominees in history. Today, Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Democrats have put a stop to this type of unprecedented obstruction, giving the President's nominees -- except those to the Supreme Court -- an up-or-down vote. Let's show Senate Democrats that Americans all over the country are standing with them: http://my.democrats.org/Thank-Senate-Democrats Thanks!

Obamacare.

Friend -- "We will tattoo it to their forehead in 2014." That's what RNC Chair Reince Priebus said this weekend about how the GOP would try to use Obamacare to beat Democratic candidates in 2014. Well, I've got a message for Reince -- bring it on. You see, I'm a Democrat who -- despite all the glitches -- is anxious, eager, and proud to fight FOR the Affordable Care Act. If you are too, say you're in today. Why am I excited about the Affordable Care Act? Because it's working, and people are already getting better, more affordable health care than before. Already, 500,000 Americans have been able to sign up for health coverage through the federal exchange, state exchanges, and Medicaid expansion. That's half a million Americans who did not have health insurance, who now will. And one million more consumers are ready to get the plan that's right for them. And that's just in one month. Has it been perfect? No. President Obama and Democrats are the first to admit the website challenges have been unacceptable. Would more people be able to enroll if the website was working properly -- yes, of course. And they will. But you know what else would help get more people enrolled? If Republicans would stop their concerted effort to block the law at every turn. If more Republican governors would set up state exchanges or expand Medicaid. If Republican lawmakers would stop holding ridiculous hearings to score political points, and help folks figure out how to fix the problems. Republicans, though, have never really been interested in that. They don't want Obamacare to work. They are actually afraid of it working. Why? Because they know once people begin to enjoy the benefits that come with a better and more affordable health care system, they won't want to give them up. And that terrifies Republicans to no end. So much so, that they even shut down the government and risked us defaulting on our national bills in order to stop it. Look, we've got some work to do to fix the glitches and get more people enrolled. We did that during the Bush Administration when Medicare Part D had a rocky rollout, and we can do it again now. Will that stop the Republicans from trying to kill it? Nope. Ted Cruz has already signaled that he's open to another shutdown in January to try to stop Obamacare. Just as President Obama unveiled some administrative fixes to the program, Marco Rubio said that, "by no means should we be exploring ways to fix this law." John Boehner renewed his commitment to "targeted strikes" aimed at repealing Obamacare, regardless of its impact on the American people. They are going to keep fighting this to the bitter end. That's why Democrats need you on their side. This is what they want to expend their energy on. Nothing else. (Well, except for restricting women's health care decisions. They'll still keep trying that. Oh, and blocking commonsense immigration reform. That appears to be a priority as well.) No wonder a poll this week showed Congressional approval at an all-time low: 9 percent! So, yeah. I'm eager, anxious and proud to run on this in 2014. Because under the Affordable Care Act, half a million people have signed up for health care so far, and that number is only going to grow. The Republican plan is to try to take that away. Because under the Affordable Care Act, being a woman is no longer a preexisting condition. The Republican plan would not only make it one again, but they would impose even more restrictions on women's health care access. Because every single Democratic member of Congress is committed to finding the solutions to make the Affordable Care Act work even better. The Republican Party? It shut down the federal government, delivering a $24 billion hit to our economy. I'll take that fight any day of the week. Republicans tried to "tattoo" Obamacare to our foreheads in 2012. We won. They tried it in Virginia in 2013. We won. With your help, Democrats will win again in 2014. Say you're in today: http://my.democrats.org/Obamacare-2014 Thanks, Mo Mo Elleithee Communications Director Democratic National Committee

Take your mom to meet the President, trust me

Friend -- Eleven days ago, I got a chance to introduce my mom to President Obama. When I told her it was going to happen, she started thinking through what she was going to say, what she was going to wear, and when she'd need to leave to make the trip from North Carolina up to Washington, D.C. But despite all the preparation, she wasn't ready for what happened. And if you want to give someone special in your life an opportunity like this, you need to enter for a chance to have your own moment with President Obama in California later this month. Take a minute and chip in $3 or whatever you can to be automatically entered. After we snapped a picture, my mom, Marcia, who works in the guidance department at our high school back home, said, "My students are never going to believe this." And the President said, "Oh, you're a teacher? You're missing school today. We better excuse your absence." Then he took out a pen, found a piece of paper, and wrote, "To Orange High -- dream big dreams. Barack Obama." As we walked out, Mom held onto that note from the President like it was priceless. She didn't want any of the rest of us to touch it. We might get it dirty, she said (you know how moms are). And as soon as she got back home, she immediately got it framed. I want you to get a moment like that. So let me give you one piece of advice: If you win this contest, spend some serious time thinking about who you want to bring as your guest to San Francisco. Because as much as it will mean to you, it'll probably mean more to them. Chip in $3 or more right now to be automatically entered and make that a possibility: https://my.democrats.org/San-Francisco Good luck!
