One day left to do your part in protecting free speech online

Friends,

The Online Coalition is proud to release our official Comment to the Federal Election Commission's proposed rulemaking regarding political speech on the Internet. Your support in the past has helped the FEC understand the importance of protecting free speech online. We need your help again.

Please visit the Online Coalition right now to read and endorse our comment.

The window to submit a comment to the FEC closes on Friday, June 3rd, 2005 -- it's not too late to submit your own comment. Simply send an e-mail to [e-mail] and be sure to include your name and mailing address. If you do not feel comfortable providing the FEC with personal data, send your comment to [e-mail] and we'll submit it for you anonymously.

Once the public comment period closes, the FEC will deliberate for a few weeks and then hold a public hearing on either June 28th or June 29th in Washington, DC. Both Mike Krempasky (a Republican) and Michael Bassik (a Democrat) from Online Coalition have requested the opportunity to testify at those hearings.

After the public hearings, the FEC will deliberate for a few weeks until they produce a final version of the rules and vote to enact them. Out of the six-member bipartisan Commission, they need four votes to do anything. We'll do our best to keep you informed at every step.

Don't forget to visit the Online Coalition today to read and endorse our comment.
