Email Update! April 25, 2013
Dear DuPage Democrats,

It's so incredible to finally have a few weeks to soak in the success we have been having over the last 5 years and, especially, in the last two. Really phenomenal. But, now that we have elected officials who hale from our side of the aisle, let's employ them in work that furthers the Democratic values that are so important to us:
  • Equal Pay and Equal Treatment under the law with  discrimination towards none
  • Fair Benefit Pay to those who have worked hard and put away money to be secure in later years
  • Reasonable Tax Priorities and Tax codes that ask that wealthy corporations and people not escape their responsibility to contribute to the commons
  • Regulation of products that can harm our citizenry

OUR SEARCH HAS BEGUN for our next crop of candidates for 2014. If you would like to be considered we will be having an orientation and meet and greet in

the next month. Please call Chairman Bob Peickert if you would like to attend this event. 630-421-2405 after May 10th.  

ELECTED OFFICIAL IDENTIFICATION QUIZ.  

First  to submit their answers in the right order gets a $50 Costco Gift Card via email.

 

 

 
  Type in order of appearance on the flyer the names of all of these elected officials and the districts they represent and submit to: 

 

arohrer@dupagedemocrats.com 

 

 

Good LUCK!
