Dear MoveOn member,
Top Republicans in the House of Representatives are now vowing to vote on their reverse Robin Hood
budget proposal within 48 hours. Your work has helped erode their support, and the vote is too close to call.
That's why today we're launching our "Face America" photo petition—calling on Congress to literally look us in the eye and do the right thing.
We're aiming to collect thousands of photos of ordinary Americans with homemade signs, asking Congress to oppose
the Republican plan to cut services for poor while handing tax breaks to the rich. To make sure you're heard, we'll deliver
every photo to every member of Congress before the final vote and run some as online ads in the newspapers Congress reads.
To join the photo petition, just attach your photo (or photos) to an email, and send it to:
faces@moveon.org
You can see photos from other members by going to:
