  • As the national debate about comprehensive immigration reform begins to heat up, activists across the country must begin strategizing now about how to organize around this key issue. Join Netroots Nation for a discussion on the role online and offline activists can play, particularly on a local level, in the upcoming battle to pass CIR. How can we ensure that our techniques are effective and how can we personalize this federal fight on a local level and engage activists in our own communities? Strategist Jenifer Fernandez Ancona will moderate this discussion about how online and offline activists can work together locally in the coming months to ensure that when the battle heats up nationally, we're ready to fight. Panelists include Paul Hogarth of Beyond Chron, activist Bobbi Lopez, Christopher Punongbayan of the Asian Law Caucus and Favianna Rodriguez of Presente.org.

  • To our friends in Pittsburgh and our speakers, sponsors and attendees, we can't thank you enough for helping make Netroots Nation 2009 a huge success. Whether you volunteered, organized a panel or submitted a question during a keynote, we truly couldn't have done this without your involvement.

    We chose Pittsburgh for a lot of reasons. It's green, labor friendly and reflects our progressive values -- values that we will take with us to the Mountain West in 2010.

    As we begin planning for our fifth convention next July 22-25, make plans to join us for the fifth annual Netroots Nation convention in Las Vegas, the place where this gathering of progressive minds first began.

    Registration is already open, so reserve your spot now.

    While symbolic, our choice of Las Vegas isn't just about our fifth anniversary. It's about taking the passion, activism and attention that we drum up each year during the convention to an area that will be a crucial region in upcoming progressive policy fights.

    As progressives, our next big battles include insuring we have a strong 21st century economy, getting employee free choice passed and organizing around comprehensive immigration reform. So as we start planning for the next year, will you save the date for next July in Las Vegas?

    There are a limited number of early-bird tickets (now just $250), register now to secure the lowest rate.

    See you in Las Vegas!
