Dear Friend, I just signed up to become a Citizen Co-Sponsor of Congresswoman Louise M. Slaughter's Independent Katrina Discharge Petition. If successful, it will force the House of Representatives to debate and vote, up or down, the formation of an Independent Katrina Commission. I know you�ll agree with me that an Independent Commission is a necessary step in our quest to investigate the woefully inadequate preparation and response to the horrible disaster on America�s Gulf Coast. http://www.votelouise.com/page/petition/discharge/kofbu In order for the Discharge Petition to take effect and force a vote, half of the House of Representatives (218 Members) must sign on and register their support. That�s a tall order to fill, especially when you consider all that the obstructionist Republican Leadership has done to block our efforts. But even they can�t stop a Discharge Petition. It truly is our silver legislative bullet. If Congresswoman Slaughter is to gather the necessary 218 signatures, she's going to need our help. Please sign up today, as a Citizen Co-Signer, and she�ll keep you updated on our success advancing the Discharge Petition and various ways you can help. http://www.votelouise.com/page/petition/discharge/kofbu We need an independent, blue-ribbon, bipartisan Katrina Commission modeled after the 9/11 Commission. The American people have rightfully lost trust in their Government. They don�t believe it can protect them� from natural or man-made disaster. An Independent Commission is essential if they are ever to regain our trust. Our fight starts right here, right now. Together we can build the support we need to advance our fight for the truth. Thanks!
