Does the Congress have a little time now for civil rights?
I would like to see this issue that always seems to get put on the backburner behind more "important" ones get a little more attention. I often see that the war is more important, is Gonzalez more important as well? Give me something on civil rights...we are Democrats, aren't we?

1. You'd think they would, wouldn't you? But don't count on it. Money STILL talks.

3. Push your closest Democratic representative into getting something going
If this is important to you get your Dem congresscritter moving then come to DU and bug DUers to support the bill you pushed into creation.

4. NAACP and HRC are doing better than I could on that front....
as far as bugging, I have a feeling it would be pushed off as not important....right now...just wait...
