I've made a pledge to recruit as many new people to join me with me at DownsizeDC.org. I'm hoping you'll be one of those people.
Membership is free. All you have to do is sign up for Downsize DC's excellent email newsletter, the Downsizer-Dispatch.
Just go to DownsizeDC.org and enter your email address on the Newsletter/ Downsizer-Dispatch subscription form.
If it turns out you don't like the Downsizer-Dispatch you can un-subscribe at any time. They have a link to do so at the bottom of the Dispatches. It's that simple.
To me, this is like asking for sponsors in a 10k walk to cure some dreaded disease, only in this case the disease is harming our entire country.
In this case we're infected by know-it-all, busy-body, politicians who
*Do too much
*Too fast
*Too poorly
I believe this infection is causing our government to grow cancerous. I think Downsize DC can help us to cure this disease.
Specifically . . .
I'd like your help in compelling Congress to pass two pieces of legislation created by DownsizeDC.org -- the "Read the Bills Act" and the "One Subject at a Time Act." These bills do exactly what their names suggest . . .
The "Read the Bills Act" would require Congress to read every word of every law they want to impose on us, BEFORE they vote to enact it. Congress is routinely ignorant of the laws they pass, but ignorance of the law is no excuse for you, and it shouldn't be allowed for Congress either.
The "One Subject at a Time Act" would prohibit Congress from passing unpopular laws by combining them with popular but completely unrelated proposals. Every law would have to be voted on as a stand alone measure, and pass or fail on its own merits.
If you join DownsizeDC.org, by starting a free subscription to the Downsizer-Dispatch, you'll learn more about these bills as well as our strategy for passing them.
You'll also gain access to a quick and easy Educate the Powerful System that will allow you to join me, and thousands of other DC Downsizers, in pressuring Congress on a variety of important issues. All it takes is a few keystrokes and mouse-clicks to use this powerful tool. I consider this tool a method of self-defense against an out-of-control Congress.
Plus, the Downsizer-Dispatch will keep you informed of Congressional activities, and give you unique ways to look at issues. I think the Downsizer-Dispatch is far superior to most of what I hear from the mainstream media.
You may not agree with all the stands Downsize DC takes, but unlike a political party or candidate, you can choose which Downsize DC campaigns you want to support.
I think the Downsize DC strategy is a crucial part of the cure for the cancerous government created by our irresponsible politicians. It would mean a lot to me if you would help me meet my pledge to recruit new members.
Give Downsize DC a try. Just Go to the "Read The Bills Act" banner Ad in the upper left corner of the blog , click on it & it will take you there.
If you decide to give Downsize DC a try I'd love to hear back from you, and know that I have a new ally in passing the "Read the Bills Act" and the "One Subject at a Time Act." Thanks!
