Jamie Wall Earns Spot in DCCC’s Competitive Red-to-Blue Program

1/18/2012

Jamie Wall (WI-08) announced today that he earned a spot on the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s (DCCC) highly competitive Red-to-Blue program. He has surpassed demanding fundraising, organizing, and infrastructure goals and skillfully demonstrated to voters that he is a problem-solver who will protect the middle class when elected to Congress.

“I am honored that so many people in Wisconsin’s 8th Congressional District have joined our grassroots campaign to create jobs, stand up for middle class families, protect Medicare and Social Security and reignite the American dream,” said Jamie Wall. “The early strength we have demonstrated by being named to the Red to Blue program means we have the support, confidence, and momentum it takes to win in November.”

“Born and raised on a dairy farm in Northeast Wisconsin, Jamie Wall knows first-hand the value of hard work and what it takes to invest in small businesses and create jobs,” said Chairman Steve Israel. “Jamie is building a formidable, grassroots campaign that offers Wisconsinites an alternative to the extreme, out of touch Republican agenda that ends Medicare just to give out tax breaks to billionaires and rewards partisan ideology over common sense solutions.”

The DCCC’s Red-to-Blue program highlights top Democratic campaigns across the country, and offers them financial, communications, grassroots, and strategic support. The program will introduce Democratic supporters to new, competitive candidates in order to help expand the fundraising base for these campaigns.
