IM sharing it with you my friends...can you pass it along please...we are halfway there...to THEIR SHUTDOWN... Dear Maiesha, Thank you for standing up to Congress and demanding that they take responsibility for their own inaction by signing my “No pay for Congress during the shutdown” petition. Because of YOU and over 247,000 other signers, the movement to demand Congress NOT receive pay during the GOP Shutdown is rallying Americans across the country! Several major news outlets, including The Huffington Post, have covered our petition, further exposing the hypocrisy of this self-inflicted shutdown and keeping the pressure on Congress to pass a funding bill that doesn’t threaten affordable healthcare for millions of Americans. But if we’re going to have an even greater impact, we need at least 500,000 signatures before we deliver the petition. Can you please forward this email to five of your friends right now? Or share it on Facebook or Twitter? With your help, we can force Congress to stop acting like spoiled children and pass a clean funding bill that will put federal employees back to work! Share this link: petitions.moveon.org/sign/tell-congress-you-have?mailing_id=15786&source=s.icn.em.cr&r_by=6145787. Thank you! Together in solidarity for holding Congress accountable, Laura, along with Annie, Caitlin, Eddie, Jacob C., Jacob W., Kristin, Michael, Paul, Sarah, and Scottie (the Courage team) CourageCampaign.org
