Email House Judiciary Committee

[siddharta]

Rep. John Conyers feels he needs a million e-mails to compel the House
Judiciary Committee to hold hearings about the 2004 election.
Go here: http://judiciary.house.gov/contact.aspx

and tell the Judiciary Committee you want hearings on Ohio!

You can copy and paste in this sample message:
I am writing to urge the House Judiciary Committee to hold
hearings as soon as possible on the irregularities of the 2004 election.
I need not remind the Judiciary Committee members that the United States
is a beacon of democracy for the rest of the world. If we truly wish to
remain the embodiment of democratic values, then we must treat the right
of every citizen to vote and for their vote to count as sacred. Ample
evidence has arisen that this right was violated or undermined for many
Americans in the 2004 election. I strongly believe that holding hearings
to investigate and resolve these irregularities would be an act of
tremendous patriotism on the part of Congress, and would serve as a
declaration that we are the world's greatest democracy not only in word,
but in deed.

Please spread this message among your list of friends and associates.

There's a growing awareness, with increasing coverage now in national
papers such as the Washington Post and LA Times, that we need an
investigation of the voter suppression and other fraud in Ohio and elsewhere.

Like Watergate, this issue will build momentum -- and we, the people, to
keep it alive until it can no longer be ignored.

4. These scams have already been exposed.

Guess it's time to try a new one.

6. A Scam?

I know this is old but, a scam should involve me making a few bucks
somewhere, No? Well, where's my cash? This is just a request for
people to email the entire Judiciary Committee instead of just Conyers. Conyers requesting emails is wrong, Judiciary Committee right...see below.
>
> CRUCIAL CORRECTION re. the "Conyers Request for Emails..."!:
>
> I'm sure you've all received (including one from me) numerous emails communicating an "urgent request by Conyers for 1 million letters" to be sent to the House Judiciary Committee. The enthusiastic response from the public has been overwhelming, proof that, in the midst of a dis-serving media blackout, our crucial internet communication system is working! However, it has been determined that in the original, widely circulating email there is a link address for the public to use for sending letters to the House Judiciary Committee ("...judiciary_democrats/contact") that is incorrect, unfortunately. Conyers has been getting flooded, and although they appreciate the enthusiasm, it has overburdened his resources at a time when we need him and his personnel most. Once being alerted to this fact, one of the senior CASE-Ohio members (www.caseohio.org) contacted Conyers office yesterday and got the CORRECT link address that we need to be using.

> Below are 2 of the "correct" communications issued yesterday:

> Date: Wed Dec 15, 2004 8:19 pm
> Subject: J. Conyers needs Judiciary Committee members contacted URGENTLY!
>
> "Rep. John Conyers, who is leading the Congressional investigations in Ohio, needs our help. He is asking for emails from the American public demanding that the House Judiciary Committee hold full hearings on the 2004 Election. Full hearings are essential, because that will give the Committee subpoena powers -- until now, Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell and others have been able to simply ignore Rep. Conyers' demands for information -- because the GOP Committee Chairman has refused to convene a full hearing. WE can change that. Send your email to: http://judiciary.house.gov/contact.aspx ".

> "Conyers is working very hard in reference to voting fraud; and if there is the slightest concern regarding his ability to work--then I

> The House Judiciary Committee is divided into two--democrats and republicans--we do not have to send our correspondence to only one particular part of the house--we have the right to send mail to the entire House Judiciary Committee.

> Should a citizen decide to contact the House Judiciary Committee, please find the following contact information for the House Judiciary Committee as opposed to sending directly to Conyers himself.
