DFA Renews Its Call for Rep. Wasserman Schultz to Support Democrats

BURLINGTON, VT – DemocracyForAmerica.com, our nation’s largest progressive political action community, endorsed Annette Taddeo’s campaign to represent Florida’s 18th Congressional District because she is a qualified candidate ready to put her experience to work for South Florida.  Ms. Taddeo is running against Bush Rubberstamp, Republican Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.  Party line toting lapdogs like Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and their failed policies are bad for South Florida and bad for America.  Debbie Wasserman Schultz, co-chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s Red to Blue program, should support progressive Democrats like Annette Taddeo.

“Debbie Wasserman Schultz should join Democracy for America, the AFL-CIO, Women’s Campaign Forum, Orange to Blue, United Teachers of Dade, and many others who support Annette Taddeo because Ms. Taddeo will bring a new beginning to South Florida and America.  Annette Taddeo will stand up for working families and fight everyday to move this country forward,” said Daniel I. Medress, Communications Director of Democracy for America.  “Debbie Wasserman Schultz is either going to stand with Democrats to end the War in Iraq, create good paying jobs, and make health care affordable and accessible or she is going to stand alone.”
