As the Democratic Party starts to recover from this past year's midterm elections it has opened 2011 with layoffs at the Democratic Party's Organizing for America:
A Democratic source told Roll Call that party officials started notifying employees Sunday night and that the layoffs are mostly a handful of field staffers in some states as Democrats assess where they want to fight 2012 battlegrounds.
“This is likely the first wave in a series of staff reductions as we transition for the re-elect,” the Democrat said.
