What is UniteBlue?

I have been a member of UniteBlue.org since February of 2013. When I joined, I had about 2400 followers on Twitter. Since joining, I have gotten over 17,300 new followers. UniteBlue.org is a "progressive community that first took root on Twitter." http://uniteblue.org/info/about/ It's core mission is to "connect, empower and amplify the Left." Over one million connections have been made through this organization. It is run by volunteers and only exists by donations. Why should you contribute to UniteBlue.org? Please read Zach Green's commentary for the answer:  http://uniteblue.org/community/2014/09/we-need-your-help/

I know you are being asked on a daily basis for donations to important causes. I am too. BUT, we have to step up to the plate now,  before it's too late. Right now the Values Voters' Summit is happening in Washington DC. They think their values are the only ones of importance to America! They are wrong and you and I know it! They have plenty of sponsors, from Family Research Council to the Liberty Council/Institute. If we sit on our pocketbooks and let these folks have all the political influence, they plan to set up a Theocracy and legislate their values and ONLY their values. If you think I am exaggerating, just take a look at their summit. It is being aired on C-span2 and has a live feed to the main speakers. If you are on Twitter, check out the tweets on #VVS14 and you will see what they plan for us.

If everyone who is a member of UniteBlue.org and others on the left would just donate $5.00, this wonderful organization can continue its presence on Twitter to counter-balance the negativity of the right wing. Please consider going to https://uniteblue.org/donate/index.php  and doing your part for the Liberal cause. Thank you.
