Act Now to Stop More Corporate Cash in Politics! :)
WILPF Goes to Court
On September 9, the U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear arguments in a case that could overturn longstanding rules barring corporations from making political contributions in federal elections. WILPF has joined four other organizations to file a "friend of the court" brief urging the Court not to overturn these rules. (http://wilpf.org/2009AugustCvDWILPFGoesToCourt)
The last thing we need is more corporate cash in politics. You can help build awareness on this important case by sending a letter via email to the editors of your local newspapers or media outlets. Act now: This case will have a significant impact on our electoral process. (http://org2.democracyinaction.org/o/5372/t/4278/letter/?letter_KEY=192)
We have prepared a letter you can send as is or you can add one or more available "talking points" or you can simply add your own words to the letter. Whatever you choose, the important thing is to make your voice heard!
