Progressive Dane's summer party is coming up on July 20. Will you be a sponsor?
Even though state and national politics take up most of the headlines, local government issues matter deeply in our daily lives. If we work together, it's in our power to assure clean government, just and equitable social institutions, affordable housing, sensible land use policies, and many other civic arrangements that make life better both for ourselves and for people who are more vulnerable. Progressive Dane exists to make that common work easier.
Our fund-raisers (just two per year, plus a campaign fund event) are an essential part of our overall budget: they help to pay our rent, telephone, and web-site costs, publish our newsletter, and support one (soon to be two) very part-time staff. They free up our volunteers to work on issues in our platforms, policy development, legislation, and community outreach.
We'd like to raise $2,500 in July. $25 or more from you will help get us there.
Please consider contributing online at http://www.prodane.org/get_involved/online/ or sending your check to Progressive Dane, P.O. Box 1222, Madison WI 53701. You can also contact Progressive Dane if you would like to sponsor and be listed on the invitation and intend to pay at a later time. The deadline to be listed as a sponsor is Saturday June 30.
If you can't sponsor, you're still invited! Enjoy snacks, cool beverages, and good conversation at the Garden Party, 5:30-7:30, Friday July 20, at the home of Carol Weidel and Dan Roberts, 1237 East Dayton St. Madison.

We, the members of Progressive Dane, join together to form an independent political party in Dane County with a major focus on local issues. We pledge to work to improve the quality of life in Dane County for all people, particularly those marginalized by economic and social discrimination. We will work to improve our local government by making it open, easier to understand, and accessible for all citizens of Dane County. We are working to achieve positive policy change by electing accountable progressive officials and mobilizing citizen action.
Progressive Dane's "In The News" blog keeps you up to date on the latest news from (and about) PD. Check here for information on PD's policy initiatives and to read about what our endorsed elected officials are up to.
