Thanks for your help beating Mama Grizzly

The Washington Post recently reported that Sarah Palin's PAC contributed $87,500 to candidates last quarter. Thanks to your help Committee for a Livable Future or LivPAC outdid this conservative potential presidential nominee by contributing $100,000 to members and candidates who will help Democrats keep the majority in November. And we did it without spending a dime on consultants!

Since its creation in 1996, LivPAC has made contributions to almost 200 Congressional candidates and helped elect and re-elect over 100 Members of the House and Senate from all parts of the country. We have raised more than $1.7 million to support the election of endorsed candidates. LivPAC currently ranks as the second largest environmental PAC and is in the top 15% of all Democratic leadership PACs.

All of these accomplishments could not have happened without your help!

This year Democrats are facing a tough election cycle. Washington pundits are claiming that Republicans have the momentum and there is a real possibility that House Democrats will lose seats and John Boehner could be Speaker - a very scary thought for us all!

Please consider contributing $25, $50, $100 or whatever you can afford so we can continue to elect Democratic candidates and keep our country moving towards a livable future. With your help we can continue to support more candidates than SarahPAC!
