Dear MoveOn member,=20
It's time to think big. We need your help.=20
Over the last few months, we've worked on a number of issues: tax =
fairness, media consolidation and the FCC, right-wing judges, the =
continuing situation in Iraq, and tactical nuclear weapons, to name a =
few. On each issue, we've played a powerful role, and on some, MoveOn =
members may have made a critical difference.=20
There are so many important issues, so many attacks on core programs and =
policies, that we could easily spend the next year and a half without =
coming up for air. But we don't want to fight a series of skirmishes, =
winning some and losing others, gaining an edge bit by bit. MoveOn now =
has close to 1.4 million members in this country. We want the whole =
enchilada: a nation based from the bottom up on fairness, freedom, =
diversity, and democracy.=20
That's why we're kicking off a process that will bring MoveOn members, =
policy analysts, political leaders, and visionaries together to chart a =
course for our work. Together, we can contribute to a vision for the =
United States that really reflects the American people, rather than the =
views of corporate special interests or right-wing ideologues. We'll use =
the results of this process to develop a call to action and a pragmatic =
guide for our future work together.=20
The process starts today, and the first step is to hear from you. We =
really want to know what stirs you to action, what you're concerned =
about, and what gives you hope.=20
We're gathering this information with a twist: rather than fill out an =
online survey, you'll be paired up for a phone conversation with another =
MoveOn member, and you'll report back on what your partner has to say. =
It'll be fun. And together we'll work to start a national discussion =
about America's future. It won't take more than an hour of your time.=20
You can sign up to participate right now (and get the details) at:
http://moveon.org/interview/?id=3D1425-2086341-t.8_WWM9MpMPmaJNs28ooQ=20
Sign up for an interview, and stay tuned. Together, we can build a real =
American agenda.=20
Sincerely,
--Carrie, Eli, Joan, Peter, Wes and Zack
