Washington State Unveils Web Site to Track Use of Recovery Dollars

noreply@blogger.com (Mark Messinger) — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 21:57:00 +0000

"One of the most important parts of the federal recovery plan is the emphasis on accountability and transparency," said Democratic Governor Gregoire, in a news release. "Our Web site will provide a place for Washingtonians to see where the recovery money is going and the results that are being produced." The site, at http://www.recovery.wa.gov/, will let people track how the federal economic recovery plan is being put to use in Washington state. The site also includes contact information for local governments looking to apply for funds.

See the Federal recovery site at http://www.recovery.gov/

In other recovery-related news, Ohio Republican John Boehner says that the Obama budget plan will raise taxes on all Americans. He's lying, and he knows it; the truth is that only taxpayers earning more than $250,000 will pay higher taxes and everybody else will receive a tax cut. Wow. The Republicans are really looking at a serious credibility gap, with the American people.

Ever Wonder What a PCO Does?

noreply@blogger.com (Mark Messinger) — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 20:11:00 +0000

A Precinct Committee Officer is an official elected by the voters in his/her precinct, or appointed by the County Democratic Central Committee to serve in a particular precinct -- a small area with an average (in the 35th LD) of about 400 voters. A PCO then becomes a member of the county Democratic central committee as well as its legislative district and thus can vote on issues brought before them at monthly and quarterly meetings, respectively.

PCOs may also choose to take a leading role in caucuses and in getting out the vote at the precinct level. Then, as community organizers, PCOs get to know the voters in their precincts, get involved in precinct teams, and help elect Democratic candidates. So they doorbell, call voters, and use the Party voter database to plan precinct-level Party activities.

When thinking about becoming a PCO consider going to your county or LD meeting. You might also take a look at The PCO Handbook written by Paul Berendt, former Chair of the State Party. This document forms the basis for what we do as PCOs. Also, check out the state Democrat party website www.wa-democrats.org and the 35th LD Democrats website www.35thdemocrats.org.

We are always interested in people who are interested in helping out with precinct-level activities. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
