(Even John Courage realizes that giving money is the most important thing we can do to help Ciro in this race! Join John, and help Ciro today! - promoted by Phillip Martin)
I want to thank you again for your generous support of my campaign for the 21st Congressional District of Texas and to ask you to make another commitment of support for my friend Democrat Ciro D. Rodriguez, currently in a runoff against Republican Henry Bonilla in the 23rd Congressional District race in South Texas.
The great nationwide Democratic Party victories in the House and Senate, as well as the governorships and legislatures of a majority of states, have given us all something to celebrate, but I want you to realize that the 2006 Congressional races are not over. Here in Texas we still have one more Republican to retire and one more great Democrat to send back to Congress.
The same August re-re-redistricting that changed my CD-21 to favor the incumbent actually put Republican Congressman Henry Bonilla of CD-23 in a more precarious position. Now Ciro Rodriguez, who ably and honorably served four terms in Congress before losing his seat in the wake of DeLay's redistricting scheme, is now on the verge of beating Bonilla in a Dec. 12 runoff and returning to Congress to truly represent the people of South Texas! But he needs our help. |

| I strongly urge you to contribute to Ciro's campaign today. You can do so online through the Act Blue site we've set up. Or you can visit Ciro's campaign website. (When you make a contribution please add 21 cents to your total, so we will have an idea of how successful our efforts to raise money for Ciro's campaign have been.)
If you live in or near Northwest San Antonio, please stop by Ciro's campaign HQ at 4435 DeZavala Road and ask how you can help. Wherever you live, you can make a difference from your own home through Online Phonebanking.
I hope you will join me in sending an honest, hardworking, grassroots Democrat back to Congress. And once again, thanks for your friendship and support for my campaign. I still believe that at times like these, Congress needs Courage, and Ciro Rodriguez has the courage. |
