The 2009 Democratic Women of Santa Barbara County Annual Luncheon
 
With Honored Guest
Congresswoman Jackie Speier 
 
Saturday, August 22nd 12:00-2:00 PM
DoubleTree Resort
For tickets or sponsorship opportunities, please call 568-5932 or email

We are pleased to announce that Congresswoman Jackie Speier (CA-12) will be our honored guest and speaker at Democratic Women's annual luncheon on August 22, 2009. Representative Speier will share her perspective as a member of the 111th Congress, discuss the significant legislation that she has introduced, and describe her work as a member of three influential House Committees. A lifelong advocate for women's rights, Rep. Speier recently authored HR 1887 to establish a Presidential Commission on Women. Democratic Women has proudly joined more than ninety women's organizations nationwide in support of this bill.
Action Items:
Urgent! Two easy ways to make a difference!
-----------------------------------------------------------
1. We encourage you to participate in the Democratic Party's Neighborhood Leader/Precinct Captain Orientation
 
Thursday, July 23, 7-9 p.m.
at Democratic Headquarters, 402 E. Gutierrez. 
 
You can use the parking lot at the rear of the building off of Olive Street and enter there.  This is a great opportunity to learn more about city government issues, the Local Party's endorsed candidates, and how you can help with the fall campaign.  A repeat of this Orientation will be held on Saturday, July 25, 3-5 p.m. at Democratic Headquarters.  To sign up for either Orientation, go to www.sbdems.org/ and follow the links.

----------------------------------------------------
2. Please join Planned Parenthood and others in a phone campaign to the Governor demanding that he sign the budget now!
 
As you know, he has threatened to veto any budget solution that includes taxes, especially those to big oil and tobacco companies.  We must tell him that we can't close the budget gap on cuts alone and solely on the backs of our children, our seniors, and our frail and disabled.
 
Please use the script below to call Governor Schwarzenegger - 916-445-2841 - If busy, please all the L.A. District office - 213-897-0322
 
Here is the script: 
"Hi, my name is ____________ and I am asking the Governor to sign a budget that includes spending cuts and new revenues.  Shared sacrifice should not mean unfairly burdening the poor and underserved while letting big oil and tobacco companies off scot-free."
 
Important:  Tracking the calls made is essential - After you make your call, send an email to brianna.eardley@... with the subject line:  "I called the Gov".  You also can call after 5:00 p.m. and leave a message at (805) 963-2445 x 147
Congratulations to the Democratic Central Committee for the success of the Roosevelt-Hamer Annual Dinner!
 
Also, Congratulations to all award recipients, including our own Executive Officer and Board Secretary, Gina Fischer who received the first annual Future of the Democratic Party award!
