The 2006 54th Assembly District Race
http://www.hintzforassembly.com
Dear Friend,
Last weekend, Democrats throughout Wisconsin came
to Oshkosh for the annual Wisconsin Democratic State Convention. The
Hintz for Assembly campaign joined
Governor Doyle, Lt. Governor Lawton, Attorney General Lautenschlager,
U.S. Senator Kohl, U.S. Senator Feingold, and many other state leaders
and activists in standing up and fighting for fiscal responsibility,
corporate accountability, tax fairness, privacy,
growth and opportunity, and above all -
real leadership.
The convention received good coverage ("Democrats
hope to get back Madison muscle"-
http://www.wisinfo.com/northwestern/news/local/stories/local_21369857.shtml
) and our close race in 2004 has assured that our campaign ("Hintz
hasn’t halted") in the 54th Assembly District will
be one of the main battlegrounds in 2006.
I will be updating my website and communicating
with supporters on a regular basis to keep you informed on the battles
taking place in Wisconsin and how you can help the
Hintz for Assembly ’06 campaign over the next eighteen
months. I would like to personally invite you to a few of our upcoming
events Fourth of July weekend.
- Hintz for Assembly ’06
Fireworks Cookout- Please join me July 3 starting at 5:30pm at 559
Hazel Street for a cookout, drinks, and fireworks in Menomonee Park
that evening. If you are planning on going to Menomonee Park for the
fireworks, be sure to stop by. Contributions welcome.
- Winnebago County Democratic Party Sawdust Daze
Table July 2 and 3rd– Hintz for Assembly
’06 Campaign and other Democratic candidates and issue
information will be available. If you are attending Sawdust Daze, be
sure to look for us.
- Winnebago County Democratic Party
participates in the Fourth of July Parade – July 4th 9am,
Main Street and Irving Avenue - Oshkosh. Come watch (or join!) the
parade and look for the Hintz for
Assembly Van and fellow County Dems as they march in
this year’s parade titled "Supporting the American Worker".
While more than a year away, it is crucial to the
success of our campaign to have the resources necessary to battle to
battle the right-wing leadership in the
Assembly who voted yesterday to prohibit the
prescribing, dispensing and advertising of birth control on University
property
and who recently voted to allow
pharmacists the right to refuse filling prescriptions, doctors and
nurses to refuse to honor 'living wills', and allow personal religious
beliefs to trump patients' rights.
I am asking for your support today – to say
"No" to Representative Underheim and
the extremists in the Wisconsin legislature
June 30 is the end
of this fundraising quarter. By starting to raise money, we will be
sending a signal to Rep. Underheim and the Republicans that we are
determined to take back this Assembly seat. Please consider making
a contribution today. $500, $250, $100, $75, $25, $10, -
whatever you can afford.
If you are committed to returning a Democratic to
the 54th Assembly District, please send a check payable to
Hintz for Assembly, to P.O. Box
1424, Oshkosh, WI 54903, or you can make a secure donation on my
website:
http://www.hintzforassembly.com/contribute.html.
If you have any questions or comments, please send
me and email or call.
Thank you-
Gordon
