Suddenly, It’s Summer…
… or it will be soon. Save the date for the Tenth Congressional District Democrats (Tenth Dems) Candidate and Volunteer Appreciation Reception on Sunday, June 23rd, from 5-7 P.M!
We will be celebrating Democrats who stepped forward to run for office within the 10th Congressional District and the volunteers who supported them. 10th District residents are fortunate to have so many top-notch candidates to choose from.
Wisconsin Congresswoman Gwen Moore will be our Keynote Speaker, fresh off of a recent appearance on The Colbert Report. Rep. Moore verbally danced to Stephen Colbert’s questions with nimbleness and verve and made the puckish talk show host scramble to find ways to dupe her, to no avail. Watch the fireworks between Rep. Moore and Colbert at http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/426350/may-15-2013/better-know-a-district—wisconsin-s-4th—gwen-moore-pt–1.
Rep. Moore serves the Milwaukee area, and she is the first African-American woman to be elected to Congress from Wisconsin. She worked on neighborhood development and economic opportunity programs for the City of Milwaukee and later held state-level positions addressing issues of health and social services, as well as housing. Since her election to Congress, her focus has been on budget, finance, trade, and international security. She is a strong supporter of women’s rights, job creation, and economic and social programs benefiting lower income Americans.
