11. Roll call vote info (Sept 2010)

Once again, politicians in Washington want to end Social Security as we know it. We're doing a roll call of who has promised to oppose benefit cuts - including raising the retirement age - and who wants to cut the benefits we all count on.

See the roll call so far here:

13. Bills to Pass in the Lame Duck Session - Time is Critical Now

We are in the home stretch of our petition, we need a little less than 900 signatures to reach our goal of 10,000 by Nov. 25th when it's sent out. Please sign it if you haven't already and share it in any way you can think of.

After Michael Moore mentioned our petition in his article http://www.michaelmoore.com/words/mike-friends-blog/lets-pass-some-laws">Let's Pass Some Laws Before the Republicans Head Into Town (after all, that's what they'd do) on Tuesday, we had a huge surge of signatures But it's slowed down now and we need to make another big push. Thanks in advance!
