You've known us as ProgressNow for quite some time. Or maybe ProgressNow Action. It's confusing, we know. Which is why we're simplifying. From here on, we're going to be called ProgressNow Colorado.But there's another reason for our name change.
ProgressNow was the start of something big. Since we launched in September of 2005, our model has been replicated in 12 other states creating a network nationwide of over 1.2 million people. There are ProgressNow state partners in Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Washington to name a few. And while we're still the original, we needed to distinguish ourselves. So, we're now ProgressNow Colorado.
What does the name change mean for you? Not too much, actually. The biggest thing you'll notice is the facelift we've given our website, www.ProgressNowColorado.org. The new site is really pretty cool. We've made it much easier for you to use our action tools. Want to contact your local and federal officials with one click? Want to get involved in progressive activities in your own community? It's all right there on the homepage.
We're also planning to spend more time mobilizing online with Facebook and Twitter. So, if you haven't already joined us on Facebook and Twitter, please join us now.
2009 is going to be a huge year for progressives. There are big plans to bring green energy jobs to Colorado, expand access to healthcare for those who need it most and increase equal opportunity for all Coloradans.
So, welcome to 2009 and the new ProgressNow Colorado. Thanks for being part of the team!
