Here is the message I posted to the old MoveOn New Mexico web site, www.persuasa.com. We had a good chat with Garrett, and in general pointed him toward DFNM as a great resource and as a way to contact many of the former MoveOn activists in NM. Hopefully he will be coming to some upcoming meetings to introduce himself.
Hello all,
Five of us (former MoveOn precinct captains) met today, Dec 4, 2005, with Garrett Monaghan, who is a new, paid, semi-permanent field organizer from MoveOn. Garrett will be living in Albuquerque through the 2006 election and will be a local contact for MoveOn and will provide help in getting each of the Operation Democracy events hosted and coordinated. His field region is all of NM plus Southern Arizona, so he will be traveling a bunch, but he is based in Abq. We expressed to Garrett some of our hopes and disappointments regarding MoveOn's past history in New Mexico, but given that he is here and wants to help, I think we all very much welcomed him to NM and want him to be successful. MoveOn's near term goal, very simply, is to help change the majority in Congress, a goal I think we can all support. Greg Burton, if you get this note, I suggested to Garrett that he contact you about re-activating this Persuasa Web site as a local resource for MoveOn folks. You might want to follow up. I hope Garrett does not mind me posting his contact information here... He can be emailed at Garrett.Monaghan@Operationdemocracy.org.
