| Aaron-- A little more than a year ago, I stood beside a tree on the National Mall in Washington and watched proudly as Barack Obama was sworn in as President of the United States.
Nine days later, as our state faced some of the greatest challenges in our history, I was sworn in as Governor of Illinois.
Since then, I have worked with President Obama to achieve a new spirit of service and responsibility in our country, and to bring prosperity back to our state and our nation.
Join our fight for jobs, recovery, and reform, and sign up to help us tomorrow.  When President Obama announced his stimulus program, I cut through the red tape to get billions of dollars out the door and into the pockets of Illinois workers and businesses – making Illinois a national leader in putting stimulus funds to work.
When President Obama asked for my help in converting an unused Illinois facility into the safest federal prison in the nation so that he could keep his promise to close Guantanamo Bay, I told him Illinois would be proud to serve the national interest. Soon, the new federal prison in Thomson will provide thousands of jobs, and $1 billion of economic activity, in an area of Illinois that desperately needs new investment.
Today, I am working with President Obama to create thousands of new jobs throughout Illinois – building new high-speed rail systems, investing in clean, green energy, and finding innovative ways to connect Illinois business with international markets.
Like President Obama, I believe in helping working families and protecting those in need. Every day, I fight for everyday people against the big shots and the special interests.
To continue our fight for Illinois families, I need your help.
Watch my closing statement, and then sign up to help us tomorrow:

Tomorrow, my opponent is counting on false, negative ads to win. Me? I'm counting on you.
Sincerely,
Pat Quinn
