Hi, I want to spread the word about the need to stop vouchers in D.C. and help give D.C. residents full democracy so that Congress can stop making policies for local D.C. Please visit the websites below and tell a friend to do so. This week, the United States Senate will take advantage of the political disenfranchisement of D.C.'s 570,000 residents, and vote on a tragic plan for a poor, African American school district, surely to be the first of many across the nation. You can help put a stop to that, by visiting www.stopdcvouchers.org/stopdcvoucherstellsenate.htm To add a gag to the disgrace, when the residents of D.C. attempt to complain about this using email to their de-facto representatives, they are often rejected, and told that the representatives will only listen to those who elect them. This, in the face of the claim by the Senators and Congressmen claim that they are acting in the interests of D.C. residents, and of their children by advancing school vouchers for DC. How do they know what those interests are, if they will not listen to them ? Why are they willing to listen to those who elect them? Because a vote in Congress gets a Congressional ear, something D.C. residents lack and need. You can do something about this. Join the "Listen to DC" campaign, where members of the public, using a website email form with a written letter or your own, can demand of select members of the Senate leadership that until such time as they stop interfering in the affairs of D.C. and grant the residents of D.C. full self governance and their own representatives, that they should welcome, encourage and solicit the opinions of D.C. residents to the same extent as they do the opinions of those who represent them. To write these members visit www.listentodc.com/listentodcemail.htm. Please register your support of this by sending a message to a decision maker. Then, use their tell-a-friend form to tell some friends of your own. Strength in numbers !
