Petition

Petition to remove Todd Akin from the Science Committee. HERE. An email addy and zip code is required. I signed it, so did others here. You do what you want, but, this man is trouble for the rights of all women and giving him some negative feedback is a good lesson.

Damn my lack of zip code.

Noelle said...

Well my zip code should stick out like a sore thumb not to many Dems in my district.

I advocate Canadians participate in American politics. Let's cheat use my code frim. 65065

I know someone registered to vote in two states. It's all fair.

Just received an email from the DCCC. The push is on for more signatures. They are 34,000 short of 300,000.

-----------------------------

We're 34,211 short of an amazing 300,000 people telling Speaker Boehner to remove Todd Akin from the House Science Committee. Will you help us keep up the pressure?

Please forward this email to 3 of your friends right now and encourage them to add their name at http://dccc.org/Denounce-Todd-Akin.

Remember, Akin said in an interview, "First of all, from what I understand from doctors [pregnancy from rape] is really rare... If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down." This guy is on the House Science Committee!

With your help we can pressure Republican leadership to remove him from his prime position on the committee that legislates science policy.

Because, you know, the arts don't create jobs (tv movies ads clothes cars everything that needs to be designed..)
