Dear MoveOn member,

As President-elect Obama (isn't that still so fun to say?) reminded us in his speech on election night, this victory itself is not the change we seek—it's a chance to make that change. To win things like clean energy, health care for all Americans, and an end to the war in Iraq, we need to keep fighting alongside Barack Obama.That's why we're launching a massive new campaign to help pass Obama's progressive agenda.

And to raise the money for that campaign, we've decided to offer an amazing Shepard Fairey "Victory" poster to everyone who donates $20 or more.Can you help launch our campaign to back up Obama—and get this beautiful poster to celebrate our win? Click below:

We know that change won't be easy. The oil companies won't give up their stranglehold on our economy without a fight. Already, pundits are starting to say that our economic crisis makes real reform impossible—when really, it's more necessary than ever.

Think of all the people who came together to make this amazing victory possible. If we can keep organizing—if we can keep getting stronger—we can win the changes we dream about.But that'll take resources. So please chip in at least $20 to our grassroots campaign. And you'll get to own this little piece of history as well—a beautiful way to remember our victory, and a small token of our thanks. Click here:
