2008-change-now

To: Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Dennis Kucinich, and Barack Obama

The Democratic nomination was not decided in Iowa or New Hampshire, so voters in many other states will have a voice in choosing our nominee.

The central theme for all Democratic candidates is change. But there's an enormous difference between talking about change a year from now - and acting for change NOW.

In the coming weeks, Congress has three major opportunities to ACT for change. As Democratic primary voters, we want to know: Will you just talk about change, or will you act for change NOW?

1. Will you actively support Senator Dodd's filibuster of telecom immunity for warrantless wiretapping, including making speeches and emailing your supporters urging them to contact their Senators?  

2. Will you actively oppose and endorse the filibuster of any bills to further fund the occupation of Iraq, including making speeches and emailing your supporters urging them to contact their Senators and Representatives?

3. Will you actively support Rep. Robert Wexler's efforts to persuade House Judiciary Committee Chair John Conyers to hold hearings on Impeachment for Vice President Cheney, including making speeches and emailing your supporters urging them to contact their Representatives?

4. Will you actively support Rep. John Conyers' single-payer non-profit health care plan (H.R. 676), including making speeches and emailing your supporters urging them to contact their Senators and Representatives?

We look forward to your prompt response so we can share your answers with millions of progressive primary voters who want change NOW.

Sincerely,
