Matt Gonzalez endorsed KHANNA for CONGRESS

Ro Khanna was enthusiastically endorsed by President of the Board of Supervisors Matt Gonzales recently for his Democratic Primary challenge. Please help Ro, a progressive young Democrat, win his campaign for U.S. Congress in the 12th District, which includes San Mateo and San Francisco County. The Incumbent has been out of touch with the district for years, and it is time to bring a new voice and new ideas into the Bay Area.

The Incumbent has been a key ally in the Bush Administration’s policies of environmental destruction and political alienation from the global community, Khanna champions environmental and political sustainability. He opposes unilateralism in American foreign policy and advocates for a renewed commitment to diplomacy and coalition building in U.S. international relations. He champions civil rights and opposes measures such as the Patriot Act and Bush’s new “restricted free speech zones,” which strip citizens of basic civil liberties.

Khanna is committed to holding public servants accountable to their constituents and ensuring that all individuals and grass roots interest groups have their voices heard. HE NEEDS YOUR HELP NOW to unseat the Incumbent and bring statesmanship, diplomacy and sustainability to the 12th District and the U.S. Congress.

We need volunteers to phone bank and go door-to-door in the precincts. The Democratic Primary is on Super Tuesday, March 2, 2004. Please volunteer for the Khanna for Congress campaign, and give San Mateo and San Francisco the voice in government they deserve!

To volunteer, contact Janey Lewis at janeylewis2@hotmail.com or by phone at (801) 557-9682 or (619) 808-2237.

Thanks!
