The national board of Democracy for America has endorsed Anne Dicker and will begin mobilizing volunteers and fundraising across the nation to support the only real reformer in the race for the first senate district of Pennsylvania. DFA has a national membership of 675,000 supporters and has played a key role in electing progressive Democrats around the country.

Anne Dicker is a political organizer, neighborhood advocate, and co-founder of Philly for Dean, Philly for Change, and PA for Democracy. As a driving force for DFA in Philly, she is uniquely qualified to break the culture of incumbency and restore a culture of activism that is open, honest, fair, and ethical. A strong voice for reform, Anne's leadership will benefit all of Pennsylvania, not just the pockets of establishment interests and government insiders.

Anne needs our support to win this tough campaign. Volunteer. Contribute. This is a chance for us to help put one of our own over the top. Contribute $20 today.
