Re: [Video] VAWA passes House!

Our pressure worked!
Thanks to the petition signatures of tens of thousands of supporters throughout the country, the House just passed the comprehensive, bipartisan Violence Against Women Act. This crucial legislation is now heading to President Obama's desk to become law.
Watch the video of my appearance on MSNBC talking about VAWA yesterday and share it with your friends on Facebook or Twitter now to show what we accomplished:

In November, voters in Missouri and across the country -- including millions of women -- made their voices heard. They voted against extremism that said we don't need a minimum wage, and that women don't need equal pay for equal work or access to emergency contraception. And they voted against a Republican Party leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives that decided the Violence Against Women Act just wasn't important enough to renew.
It's been nearly one year since the Senate voted to renew this critical bill. For nearly a full year, Republicans in the U.S. House dragged their feet, refusing to even vote on the Senate-passed bill -- finally just letting it die before the new year.

But today, we won. Share my video on Facebook or Twitter now and let the world know.

This happened because of the commitment Americans from all walks of life showed to protecting women and families. And you have my commitment that as we tackle more of the important issues facing the country, I'll be calling on your help again soon.
All the best,
Claire McCaskill

Fwd: StLouis One Week from Today!

Hello Slay for Mayor Volunteers!

We have just one week to go until the the election that will set the course for the next four years, and for generations to follow!

March 5th represents a cross-roads for our city.  With the competent leadership of Mayor Slay, we can continue to move forward on the road toward a safe, sustainable, well educated, economically prosperous St. Louis, in which everybody benefits from a better quality of life. We understand that the alternative would halt our positive momentum, and push us backwards toward division, inefficiency, and a lack of judgement and understanding in City Hall.  It is up to US to impress this upon the voters, and urge them to get out and vote for Mayor Slay!

• Read and share this endorsement from the St. Louis Post Dispatch, which explains some of the most important reasons that Mayor Slay is by far the better choice on Election Day.

• Sign up for our Friends and Family Program now!  If we all keep in touch with between 5 and 15 people we know, inform them about this important election, and make sure they vote, it could determine the future of our City.

• Bring in your phone book, Christmas card list, or church, club or team directory between now and Friday March 1st and send post cards to your friends and family.  We will supply all of the materials. This is one of THE most effective ways for us to reach out to voters.

• Help out with a mailing! We are working on mailings every afternoon and evening this week. Email me if you can come in for an hour or two to help write post cards, fold, stuff, label and stamp!

• Join our Volunteer Canvass Crew!! We need volunteers to go door to door and inform voters about this critical election.  Let's get out there and show our support for Mayor Slay! Any time hour or two you can spare to help us knock on doors will contribute GREATLY to our success!!

• Join our Volunteer Phone Bank!! We need volunteers to help us call voters and spread the word. Let me know if you have an hour or two to man the phones.

• Tuesday March 5th is ELECTION DAY!! Plan to help us staff the polls. The busiest times are 7-9am, 11am-1pm, and 5-7pm, but anytime on election day will be helpful.  We will also need volunteers to help post signs at polling places Monday night March 4th and very early in the morning on election day, Tuesday March 5th.

As always, feel free to contact me any time with questions or suggestions, and thank you again for all that you do!

Dear Scotts: Tomorrow at 8 a.m. a committee in the Missouri legislature will here infamous Senate Bill 207's identical twin, House Bill 398 that would allow energy companies to dig even deeper in our pockets to charge more money for the same service. Take a stand today and send a message to your legislator.  As you have heard, the legislation that would allow energy companies to put in place a new surcharge on consumers and completely bypass real oversightwith the Missouri Public Service Commission. That means theutilities could raise their customers rates at any time without the consumer and regulatory process put in place to keep Missouri consumers and small businesses from being gouged. The legislation is backed by the Missouri Electric Alliance, a collaboration of St. Louis-based Ameren Missouri, Kansas City Power & Light and Empire District Electric in Joplin.  Take a moment now to send your legislator a message to stand up for you against the power companies trying to get more of your money.
