Message from George Fearing

For an entire decade during my teenage years, the Democratic Party held Central Washington's seat in Congress. As recently as the 1990s, Democrats, north and south, also served Central Washington in the Washington State Legislature.

Unfortunately, Republicans have held the congressional seat of the Fourth Congressional District since 1994. No Democrat living in the Fourth CD has served in the state legislature for the past 8 years. A handful of Central Washington's Democrats hold local offices, both partisan and nonpartisan, but the number is few and wanting.

The Democratic Party built Central Washington's dams, irrigation projects, and the Hanford site. The region's agricultural economy and energy industry prosper more under Democratic Party governance than Republican Party rule. The Democratic Party should be the party of Central Washington.

The time for the Democratic Party to promote its message throughout Central Washington-- and in turn, elect members to Congress, the Washington State Legislature, and local offices-- is long overdue. Please join me in rebuilding the Democratic Party in Central Washington.

I urge you to donate to the Fourth Congressional District Democratic Committee for party building efforts. The money will be used to spread the message of the Democratic Party throughout Central Washington, including radio spots, billboards and other communications. The Fourth Congressional District Committee will approve specific projects. I also urge you to become involved in and attend meetings of the Fourth Congressional District Democratic Committee. Not only will you have a say in how the money is spent, but you will earn the satisfaction of making changes in Central Washington.

Please make your check payable to the Fourth Congressional District Democratic Committee, address 2415 W. Falls Avenue, Kennewick, WA 99336.

Let's make Central Washington red, white, blue and green again!

Democratically yours,
George Fearing, Chair
Fourth Congressional District Democratic Committee
