"Organizing For America" Office Opens In North Carolina



























(Organizing for America will continue the work of the largest grassroots movement in history. Volunteers, grassroots leaders, and ordinary citizens will drive this organization and help bring about the changes we proposed during the presidential campaign.)




Obama group opening Raleigh office


Organizing for America, the organizing arm of the Democratic National Committee, will open a state-wide headquarters in Raleigh this evening.

The group has been operating across the state most of the summer seeking to rally backers of President Barack Obama to support proposed changes in the health care system. But in many instances, their efforts have been over shadowed by opposition that has appeared at town hall meetings, Rob Christensen reports.

The heaquarters at 130 E. Morgan Street will over see what the Democrats hope will be a final push for health care changes this fall as well as other administration proposals for education and energy.

The Organizing for America staff in the state consists of five people.
