Pelosi described the event as "an unforgettable evening with President Obama and leading Democrats from across America" and said it will show how strongly Democrats support President Obama's efforts to invest in America's future.

Pelosi also faulted Republicans for pushing what she called a divisive agenda that will compromise the economic security of the middle class.

The e-mail also includes a solicitation for $5 or more for a chance to win a trip to the Boston event and join her at the dinner.
