John -

Paul Ryan's plan to kill Medicare is going to cost the Republicans their
majority in the House.

Just look at what happened in New York this week -- Democrat Kathy Hochul
won a special election to Congress in the most Republican district in the
state. Not even Barack Obama could win that district in 2008 and he won New
York State by 25 points.

Republican Jane Corwin's campaign collapsed after she endorsed Paul Ryan's
radical right-wing plan to destroy Medicare -- and there are dozens of
Republicans across the country in swing districts and even
Democratic-leaning districts who voted to kill Medicare. The road to a
Democratic majority lies through these districts.

One of these districts is in Illinois, where we already have an outstanding
progressive candidate in the race -- Ilya Sheyman.

Ilya is one of us. He's a grassroots progressive and he's putting together a
campaign to win in Illinois. This is a Democratic district and we can win it
and a Democratic majority in 2012 with your support today.

Please join me and contribute $10 right now to support Ilya's grassroots
campaign and elect a progressive majority in 2012.

Republicans took a majority last year saying they were going to create jobs,
but instead they've launched the most radical right-wing assault on the
middle class that I have ever seen. They're trying to kill Medicare, Social
Security, workers' rights -- not to mention women's rights, the environment,
student loans, and voters' rights.

It's disgusting and we need strong progressives like Ilya in Congress to get
the country back on track.

Ilya's worked with DFA members for years. He has dedicated his life to
moving this country forward and we need more people with his vision and
integrity in Congress.

 Contribute $10 now and help elect a real grassroots progressive to
Congress.

The fight to take back the House and elect a progressive majority starts
now. Join me in supporting Ilya today.

Thank you, John, for everything you do. Working together, we're unstoppable.
