This week, Senate Republicans did all they could to block Wall Street reform. We beat back their obstruction to move forward with debate, but we know we’re in for more of the same in the weeks ahead. So next Thursday, May 6th, OFA volunteers are putting together a Wall Street Reform Day of Action, to show that reform has bipartisan support across the country. In Texas, folks will be hosting what we’re calling "Wall Street Reform Phone Booths" — events where volunteers set up in a high-traffic area with information and signs, getting supporters to call their Republican senators and demonstrate their support for Wall Street reform. Can you help? I’m hoping that you — as one of our most committed supporters — can host a Wall Street Reform Phone Booth in your area. Can you make it happen?
We’ve created an easy-to-follow host guide to help you through the process. You don’t need any previous experience to host a phone booth — just a desire to help demonstrate support for Wall Street reform. We’ll help get folks out to your phone booth with an email to supporters in your area, and you’ll play a big role in moving reform forward. Our goal is simple: show Republican senators that the American people won’t stand for continued obstruction on Wall Street reform. Legislation advanced this week because Republican senators saw and heard from their constituents that they couldn’t stand in the way of debate any longer. And these phone booths will go a long way toward delivering that message again, to show that they can’t stand in the way of much-needed reform. Please sign up to host a phone booth next Thursday, May 6th: http://my.barackobama.com/WSRhost Thanks, |
