Got this message from Hillary:
Dear Friends,
I wanted to be the first to tell you about my new Friends of Hillary website, which you can find by clicking right here: www.friendsofhillary.com.
So many of you have asked me where you can go to get more information about the work I am doing and about how you can help and stay involved. I am launching this site to help answer those questions. Your support means so much to me and I want you to become an active part of this growing online community.
Thanks to the Internet, I can stay in touch with friends old and new. And through email and an e-newsletter you can sign up to receive, I will keep you up-to-date on what's happening in the Senate and around New York.
The site is interactive. You can download New York State's voter registration form, and invite your friends to see the site. Click on the color coded map and region by region, from Western New York, to the North Country, to the East End of Long Island, you can see what issues I am working on and then email your thoughts to me.
This site is about education, health care, homeland security and our economy. But most important, this site is about you.
It's about you because the ideas and issues we debate in Washington affect your life and future right where you live. That's something I remind myself about every day I spend in the Senate. For this is your government, and my job is to fight for you.
In the not-so-distant past, campaigns didn't reach out to people at the grassroots level until very close to Election Day. But thanks to new forms of communication, that's all changed now. And I want to do all I can to energize more people and involve them in the political process right away. There is power in numbers, and nothing less than the direction of our country is at stake.
That is why I am especially excited about "Young Voters for Hillary Rodham Clinton" (YvHRC). It's a new group that's working to involve more people between the ages of 18 and 40 in the political process and to help them use their creativity and energy to work for a brighter future for our communities and our state.
And then there's "Hill's Angels," a group of supporters who, through their generous contributions, are helping me bring my message to every corner of our great state.
You can find out more about YvHRC and Hill's Angels right on my Friends of Hillary website. And I'm also very proud that the site links directly to www.AmigosDeHillary.com, a full service Spanish language website, one of the first launched by a New York elected official.
Again, thank you so much for your support; none of this would be possible without you. I hope that, by staying in touch and working together, we can encourage more people like you to get involved in politics. That's because, particularly in this Internet age, every one of us can make a difference.
Sincerely,
|
