Expanding to more states in 2006 — and how you can help

Our legal research has led us to divide the states into two broad categories, which (in the spirit of technical jargon) I'll call "easy" and "hard".  "Easy" states are those where we can engage in bundling in a manner similar to the Federal case, and therefore where we know we can launch ActBlue in time to have an impact this cycle.

The twenty easy states:

• Already active — Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Oregon, Pennsylvania,  South Dakota,  Texas,  Virginia, and Wisconsin.


• Funded and in progress — California and Montana.


• Awaiting funding — Alabama, Arizona, Illinois, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Wyoming.

We need your help funding these ten remaining states so we can launch them by labor day!  You can make the difference by contributing to and fundraising for our efforts in these states.

We know that we can get there — Annatopia and Texas bloggers put us over the top to launch their state, and Cliff Lyon in Utah has been a one-man force of nature, raising funds and getting state legislators involved in making the pitch as well.

20 states by Labor Day — let's get this thing done.
