Here's a decoded attack of Senator Elizabeth Warren and other Progressives who are fighting for all Americans....
According to the self-styled centrists at
Third Way, fighting for policies that help working Americans is a "dead end for
Democrats."
Who do these people think they are?
I'll tell you: Third Way is a
corporate-funded "Democratic" organization that took to the Wall Street Journal
to attack Elizabeth Warren and progressives for fighting to expand Social
Security and make the wealthy pay their fair share.
This is exactly why, with your support,
Progressives United raised over a quarter of a million dollars to elect
Elizabeth Warren in the first place -- and exactly why we used our megaphone in
the press to make sure stories showed that Warren wasn't alone. But to keep her
going, we need Warren to know that progressives like you have her back, and
stand with her in this crucial fight to expand Social Security.
Because of progressives' work, and the work of leaders like Elizabeth Warren, we've changed the playbook by calling for Congress to expand Social Security benefits, not shrink them. These are exactly the issues that true progressives like Senator Warren have been speaking out on for years -- and that dedicated progressive activists have gone all-in to fight for.
No one in Washington wanted to consider expanding benefits a couple years ago. But now, it's a mainstream proposal that's gaining momentum everyday.
Here's today's reality: The old guard in Washington is scared of us. And yes, that includes some self-described "Democratic" organizations who attack progressive values and take pleasure in undermining President Obama.
These tirades are a stark reminder how much we need leaders like Warren to continue standing up and speaking out -- not just against the usual GOP opponents, but even against so-called "Democrats."
Stand with Elizabeth Warren and against so-called Democrats undermining Social Security. Sign Progressives United's petition today.
This is why, together, we did so much to elect Warren and raised over $1.4 million dollars to elect fellow progressives like Sherrod Brown. We needed to change the conversation from cuts for hardworking Americans and bailouts for Wall Street to setting working families on a path to prosperity and security -- and we did.
Thanks for uniting as a progressive,
Josh Orton
Political Director
P.S. Here at Progressives United HQ, this is an all-hands-on-deck situation. We’re talking to the press, making calls to our allies, and making sure the call to get Elizabeth Warren’s back is heard far and wide. Join us and stand with Elizabeth Warren and against so-called Democrats undermining Social Security. Sign Progressives United's petition today.
