  <blurb>&lt;strong&gt;If you want this country to be independent of foreign oil, if you believe it&amp;#39;s time for quality, affordable healthcare for all and if you feel the war in Iraq has been a complete disaster, it&amp;#39;s time to send Steve Harrison to Washington. Steve is a neighbor who believes in hard work, integrity and accountability and will fight hard to restore the good name of this community.&lt;/strong&gt;

      <pageblurb>I ran for Congress in 2006 against Vito Fossella and I received 43% of the vote, the highest percentage a Democrat has received against Fossella, even though I was outspent 13:1. 


Now it&amp;apos;s 2008 and I&amp;apos;m running again and with your help, we can turn NYC blue and remove the last GOP congressman in our midst. 


Our people-powered campaign is soaring and has received national attention. Our opponent, Vito Fossella, has received national media attention, as well. 


There are many issues that separate me and any Republican opponent. 

I believe that we need to get our troops safely out of Iraq. 

I believe in the Conyers/Kucinich Single-Payer healthcare legislation. 

I believe in increasing the minimum wage to a living wage. 

I believe in full marriage equality. 

I believe in human rights, civil rights, and women&amp;apos;s rights. 

With your support, we can turn NYC blue. For too long, our district has been represented by someone who was beholden to special interest groups. 


It&amp;apos;s time NY-13 had a representative who knew who he was beholden to: the people.
