Organizing for America (OFA), the Democratic National Committee's (DNC) grassroots project to support President Obama's agenda, will hold meetings Thursday at 7 p.m. in Conway and Friday at 7 p.m. in Florence with local supporters and volunteers as part of OFA's series of "listening tours" taking place across the country.
Attendees, including supporters and volunteers from the general election, will be invited to offer ideas on how OFA should organize in the Conway and Florence communities to support President Obama's priorities. The group will also discuss the best way to provide Americans with the tools to make their voices heard in Washington and help bring about the long-term change voters asked for so overwhelmingly last November.
"We're here with one goal in mind - to listen,” said Anton Gunn, OFA State Director for South Carolina. “The historic dedication and commitment of our supporters is what brought us victory in November and is what will help us advance President Obama's bold vision for the country over the coming years. They, more than anyone else, know what approaches will work best in their community and were eager to hear from them.”
OFA is committed to building on and strengthening the historic grassroots network created during the campaign and helping advance the President's policy agenda. The group is currently holding health care reform events across the country and previously organized a nationwide pledge drive to encourage Americans to call their Members of Congress to encourage support for President Obama's budget.
