DC for Democracy is calling on our grassroots brothers and sisters to tell their Representatives to do their jobs and have an open 17-hour debate on what we are going to do in Iraq - for the first time since 2002.
On Monday, Daily Kos had a great diary about H Res 543, a bill that would create 17 hours of debate on Iraq on the floor of Congress.
DC for Democracy recently started a nationwide, grassroots campaign called "Change the Course" - and with the support of Democracy for America, we have just expanded from 3 pilot states to 30 states. The plan? We do the lobbying here in DC, you do the lobbying in home districts during Congressional recess. We're already working with local DFA groups in MD, CA, NY, PA, and NJ. When we started out there were 60 names on the discharge petition, and now there are 75.
We need your help! We need your action! Can you join us? More on the flip...
