Received this e-mail today from the Progressive Change Campaign Committee regarding Senator Mark Warner (D. VA) and Social Security:
Sunday on CBS's Face the Nation, Sen. Mark Warner said: "We all know at the end of the day...Democrats are going to have to give on entitlement reform."
This is coming from one of the Democrats picked to negotiate with Paul Ryan and hash out a budget.
We need to pressure Sen. Warner on his home turf to stop pushing for a Grand Bargain that cuts Social Security.
Can you chip in $3 to help us mobilize deeply in Sen. Warner's home state of Virginia these next few months?

Sen. Warner has a bad habit of pre-emptive caving on Social Security. Days before the shutdown, Warner told CNBC, "Democrats are gonna have to give on entitlements."
This broken record needs to find a new tune --- one expands benefits for seniors and veterans, not cuts them.
Starting next week, we want to organize Warner's Virginia constituents, generate local media pressure, and flood his office with phone calls.
Please donate $3 to help us ensure that Sen. Warner hears loudly from his constituents.

Some groups won't name names of Democrats who need pressure. We just did because, with Social Security at stake, progressives need to pressure the right people.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
