Today’s Downsizer Dispatch . . .
Quote of the Day:
“There is no worse tyranny than to force a man to pay for what he does not want merely because you think it would be good for him.”
— Robert Heinlein
Subject: Advance warning
Congress is about to do something very bad in a very bad way. We will tell you what, and how to fight it on Monday, assuming there are no surprises, so please be ready to read the Monday Dispatch and take immediate action. Speaking of surprises . . .
Congress is always full of them just before they leave for August recess. We need to hang loose and be ready to react to whatever they do, so we’ve decided to wait until August to launch our new website, the refurbished Congressional Contact System, the “One Subject at a Time Act,” and our new “strike at the roots” campaigns.
It’s just a short delay. The August recess is only 14 days away. Speaking of which . . .
We made some good progress toward our July budget yesterday. But we need to make more. If you can help us do that . . .
We’ll mail a “9/11: Press for Truth” DVD to your home. Here’s how to get one . . .
If you’re an existing monthly credit card pledger in good standing as of June 15, 2007, all you have to do is increase your monthly pledge by at least $1, and we’ll send one to you.
If you’re NOT an EXISTING monthly credit card pledger then you can start a monthly credit card pledge of at least $6, or make a one-time credit card donation of $35 or more, and we’ll send you the DVD. (Sorry, for technical reasons we cannot make this offer for PayPal pledges or donations).
You can make your contribution here.
Thank you for being a DC Downsizer.
