Texas Young Democrats

Aug 19, 2009 

Dear Fellow Democrats,

It is my honor to be writing this as your Texas Young Democrats President.  I implore you to continue the drive to make Texas Blue because without the increase in voter education, voter registration, and GOTV efforts, our plans are futile.

As Texas Young Democrats President, I encourage you to inform every young person you know between the ages of 16-40 to become active in the Youth Movement and sign up to be a member of your local chapters; from the University of Texas Pan-American Young Democrats to the Panhandle Young Democrats, El Paso Young Democrats to the Harris County Young Democrats and Dallas County Young Democrats (who were recently named Young Democrats of America Local Chapter of the Year), and the various chapters within the heart of Texas (University Democrats at University of Texas - Austin and Bexar County Young Democrats just to name a few). We need to show the rest of the country that Texans care and when we care, we are Democrats.

We are coming off an epic General Election Year  and electing a President that truly speaks for our values.  President Barack Obama can only go so far though, it is up to all of us to continue the fuel for this fire that has been ignited in us after eight years of disastrous policy-making.  The Texas Young Democrats were named a few weeks ago the Franklin D. Roosevelt State Chapter of the Year at our biannual Young Democrats of America Convention in Chicago, Illinois.  Please do not let this momentum stop.  We need your help to continue our strength; albeit help by getting bodies to our meetings or donating monetary values.  We need your help; we are the future and the now of the Democratic Party, please leave a strong legacy.

Sincerely yours, 

Melanie Aranda
