Dear Summit Attendee:

Thanks to you, the RightOnline / Defending the American Dream Summit in Austin last week was a huge success. Hundreds of citizen leaders and new media activists gathered for 2 days of training sessions and issue discussion. You helped make history as part of the first large gathering of conservatives focused on how to amplify our voices online.

The Summit also sent a powerful message to the politicians, the media, and the special interests about our shared vision for America.The RightOnline / Defending the American Dream Summit garnered national media attention in The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and The Austin-American Statesman.

The summit was also featured in multiple local papers, and in just about every article that mentioned NetRoots Nation. Thanks for being a part of this historic event and helping make it such a success.
