Daniel,

*BREAKING NEWS: New Hampshire Democratic State Rep. Robert Theberge tells
us that he has dropped his **affiliation **with ALEC -- the
voter-suppression, union-busting group.*

5 other Democratic legislators made similar announcements this week,
bringing the total to 28 down, 49 to go!

Can you sign our petition to the remaining Democrats in ALEC telling them
to dump ALEC? Click
here.<http://act.boldprogressives.org/go/7943?akid=7653.1010902.LY5Ouw&t=3>

We kicked off our national "Dems, Dump ALEC" campaign two weeks ago.
Legislators like Rep. Theberge have gotten hundreds of phone calls, and our
momentum has been reported on by CNN, CBS, and MSNBC.

*For the first time, Rep. Theberge tells us: "I am no longer a member of
ALEC, nor do I support their views. Please ensure that my name is no
longer associated with ALEC." *He added that he was "concerned about the
make-up of the members where businesses and corporations had a direct voice
and vote."

The weak facade of ALEC's "bipartisanship" is crashing to the ground. Along
with our allies at ProgressNow, we'll keep the pressure on all ALEC
Democrats.

Please join over 80,000 people telling Democratic legislators to dump ALEC
today. Click here.<http://act.boldprogressives.org/go/7943?akid=7653.1010902.LY5Ouw&t=4>

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
