“There is a lot at stake:" Democrats plan days of action with one year left until 2016 election

WASHINGTON – This week, Democrats are kicking off “Keep America Moving Forward” days of action to mark one year out from the November 2016 elections.

According to officials with the Democratic National Committee, across the country this week, Democratic state parties will be holding a variety of engagement activities to spread the word to their friends and neighbors about the importance of protecting the economic improvement under President Obama's leadership, and to continue creating economic opportunity for the middle class.

DNC officials say it’s clear that Republican presidential candidates are set on reversing those gains and dragging our country back to economic policies like tax cuts for the super-wealthy that already proved disastrous under previous Republican presidents.

“Keep America Moving Forward” events across the country are designed to look to the future, mobilizing, energizing, and engaging voters through voter registration, volunteer recruitment, training and other events, DNC officials say. From Nevada to New Jersey, Wisconsin to Pennsylvania, and Ohio to Florida, state Democratic parties are already gearing up for a competitive election year.

“There is a lot at stake in the upcoming elections,” said Democratic National Committee Chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz. “From the White House to state legislatures to city halls, voters will have a choice between Republican candidates looking to drag our country backwards, or Democrats who’ll build on a strong record of success. The question is, do we want Republicans to take us back to when we were losing 800,000 jobs a month, foreclosure signs littered streets across America, and insurance companies could deny insurance to cancer survivors like me? Or do we want a Democrat in the White House who will build on the progress we've made as a country in creating economic security and expanding opportunities for the middle class? Democratic candidates are the ones who will keep America moving forward, and the Democratic Party on both the national and local level will remind voters of that fact throughout this campaign.”

As part of the kick off and in anticipation of the fourth GOP presidential debate set for Tuesday evening, November 10th in Milwaukee, to be aired on Fox Business Network, the DNC Communications Office also issued a report on the economic progress that has been made under Democratic leadership in the White House, and what the promises of Republican candidates would mean to the middle class. The report will help Democrats across the country hold the Republican field accountable at watch parties and media interviews reacting to the debate.
