The small central valley town in the Capay Valley will hold a climate action to coincide with the climate march in New york City September 21st. The town of Rumsey in the Capay Valley has always been political active. Community members have frequently taken action to protect and support their agricultural interests. This time it is the world changing challenge of global warming. California is experiencing its third year of drought with no relief in sight. This is a farming community and the weather determines success or failure. The Rumsey town Hall sits along scenic Hwy 16. This will be the site of the climate action. Community members are encouraged to bring signs and their support. The event will be held from 11am to 2pm. Our numbers may be small but this is an "all hands on deck" sort of issue and we are going to do our part.

CA-2 could be a surprise Dem pick-up

Candidate for the House CA-2 Jim Reed has internal polls showing him within 1-2 points of Wally Herger a 24 year GOP incumbent. This race is going on under the radar and without help from the Democratic party. This hard working Democrat, could snatch it from right under the Republican's nose. Jim Reed, an energetic and intelligent candidate from Shasta County, is waging an all out campaign to unseat a "Just say no and collect your paycheck" Republican opponent who is best known for his "God Bless you and your a good American" comment to a "Proud right wing terrorist" that attended his town hall meeting in Redding CA and was declared Worst Person in the World by Keith Olberman. If there are constituents willing to help with the GOTV effort or If you political junkie's out there want to chip in a few dollars to help him charge across the finish line, his website is reednow.com and if I can figure out how to incorporate an Actblue button I will.

Right now, under the radar the CA-2 Congressional race is starting to tighten. Nate Silver where are you? Jim Reed (reednow.com) a rancher and lawyer from Shasta County is waging a vigorous campaign against Republican Wally Herger. Herger is a "just say no, do nothing but pick up your check" congressman. He has been in office for 24 years with no visible sign of accomplishments. He is ripe for the picking. Party Democrats aren't helping and this is a real grass roots effort with a strong candidate. I am asking you, my smart and politically aware friends at Daily Kos to help. Can you send him a a few bucks or better yet a lot of money. We can win this. We could have a surprise upset in California and grab a Republican seat right from under their nose.
