Well, just before the election, SSP listen a ridiculously large group of Congresspersons who were late in paying their DCCC dues. Many of us were outraged since that amount exceeded I believe 6 million dollars in past dues. I said I would write my Congresswoman, who I knew would be on that list, Grace Napolitano CA-38, and today, got a response from her Chief of Staff.
Mr. Groen,I’m Daniel Chao, chief of staff for Rep. Napolitano. Thank you for sending the Congresswoman your letter on DCCC dues. I wanted to let you know that 2 days after your email, the Congresswoman met personally with DCCC Chair Rep. Chris Van Hollen to personally hand him a check with pending dues.
I sincerely appreciate your work on behalf of us in the field going door to door for Mayor Cook. This race unfortunately didn’t garner the kind of attention it should have received and we look forward to helping in the future.
Please have a wonderful and safe holiday. Best wishes,
Daniel
Do not let it be said that I don’t do what I’ll say I’m going to do. I answered the call SSP, thank you for making me a better citizen! Honestly, I was surprised to get a response, let alone a personalized one. Rep. Napolitano is not the best when it comes to that. It is nice to know that some, if not all the late paying Congresspersons ponied up and gave what they were supposed to.
Thank you for sharing this. It made an all-around rough day for me a little bit better. It’s good when our elected officials actually, you know, listen to what we have to say– even just one person.
