Friends,

We now know who our opponent is, and he's the same guy who once said outsourcing was good for Michigan's economy, has called for more free trade deals with China and left us with the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. Now he wants to take us back to those same failed Bush policies, and we cant let that happen. Mark beat him once, and he's ready to beat him again.

Mark is ready to hit the ground running this weekend to let voters know he's fighting every single day to level the playing field so our businesses can create jobs here - not China. But we're counting on you to help us spread this message across the state and set the record straight.

Do you have an hour or two to join Mark Schauer for a "Lucky 7s" Canvass Kickoff Tour as we knock on 7,000 doors in the 7th district on August 7th? Here are the locations:

To RSVP, please visit http://www.markschauer.com/action/volunteer and let us know you're coming. And don't hesitate to bring a friend!

We're already under attack from Walberg's special interest allies. A Virginia-based group called "Americans for Prosperity" is spending $260,000 on misleading TV ads this week to distort Mark's record of fighting for fair trade policies to level the playing field with China. We know we can win this in November - but we can't do it without people like you spreading the word and setting the record straight about Mark Schauer's effort to put Michigan back to work.

If you have any questions, please visit http://www.markschauer.com/action/volunteer and contact your local Volunteer HQ! Let's show our opponent we don't want to go back to his extreme outsourcing policies!
