South Dakota Democratic Party
 

Three weeks have passed since many joined the South Dakota Democratic Party to launch the campaign to refer House Bill (HB) 1230, a measure taking over $16 million a year from our schools and nursing homes to create a "large project development fund," to the 2012 general election.

Unless defeated at the ballot box, HB 1230 will take money away from funds for education and healthcare at a time when we're struggling to keep teachers in our classrooms and to keep nursing homes from closing because of the governor's budget mistakes.

WIth help from folks like you, our efforts have already yeilded great results:

  • 134 have volunteered to gather signatures
  • 28 online petition packets have been requested
  • 16 Community Petition Leaders have been designated
  • 11 favorable articles have appeared across South Dakota in newspapers, on radio, and in the blogosphere.
  • 2 Letters to the Editor have been written
  • 1 Governor has grown increasingly bashful.

Every day, dozens of South Dakotans are knocking on doors and gathering signatures at post offices, courthouses, and local events across the state. They are taking the first step to stop this bill in its tracks. And you can too!

Join your friends and neighbors to gather signatures in your community

In order to successfully refer HB 1230, we need to secure 25,000 valid signatures by June 27th, 2011 at 5pm.

Democrats, Republicans, and Independents are signing the petition to stop the Governor's effort to pit our children's education against economic development. They know that if we sacrifice education for economic development, we are actually at risk of losing both.

Every signature counts – whether you get it gathering signatures at the post office or by asking your friends over coffee.

Request a petition packet or sign up for a time to gather signatures in your town.

The petition packet and our website have all the information you need to know to gather signatures with confidence!

Thanks for your support,

Ben
Chairman
South Dakota Democratic Party

PS: Your help really can make the difference between a state that supports its children's education and seniors' health care or a state that cuts funding to schools and nursing homes every time Republicans want bigger corporate giveaways. Please join the many South Dakotans helping to stop HB 1230 today!
