The poster boy for Congressional corruption, Tom DeLay, is delivering his farewell speech on the floor of the House today, and formally resigning tomorrow. His colleagues will cheer him, big donors and lobbyists will thank him, and voters will say good riddance.
It almost makes you want to throw a party -- and we're hoping you will.
On June 27th hundreds of Americans will take part in Clean Money Day by hosting house parties in their neighborhoods and communities to screen the new film The Big Buy: Tom DeLay's Stolen Congress. These house parties will kick off Public Campaign Action Fund's new national campaign to take Congress back from insider lobbyists and powerful interests.
Will you open your house to family, friends, and neighbors to watch this movie and help us launch our national campaign?
If you can't make a commitment to host a house party, but want to go to one close your house, you can RSVP today and we'll send you more information when it's available.
You know about the Clean Elections systems in Maine, Arizona, Connecticut, and North Carolina. But do your neighbors?
One of the most important things people need to hear about the scandals is that there is a solution that actually works -- Clean Elections laws are already working to great effect in states around the country.
Below you'll find helpful hints about signing up to be a host. Once you've signed up, we'll be in touch with you to talk more -- we appreciate the commitment you are making and we want to make sure you have everything you need for June 27th, including a free copy of The Big Buy and other important materials.
Tom DeLay may be packing his bags but the tactics he employed will live on in Congress unless something is done. This is our moment to seize.
Without you, we wouldn't be without DeLay. Thanks so much for all you've done so far.
