Did Fox News do the same as NewsCorp?

Hi,

Reporters at Rupert Murdoch-owned newspapers regularly hacked the
phones of politicians, celebrities, and even hacked the phone of a
13-year-old murder victim. Now it appears they may have hacked the phones
of 9/11 victims. I just signed a petition to make sure Congress finds out
what Murdoch knew and when he knew it–and holds anyone who broke U.S. law
accountable.

Don’t Let Them Cut Social Security

News reports say Obama put Social Security cuts on the table for a
debt deal with Republicans. All because Republicans refuse to roll back
tax breaks for the rich and big corporations.

We have to act quickly to get congressional Democrats to take those cuts
off the table. A deal can’t pass without them.

I signed a petition urging congressional Democrats to say no to a deal
that sacrifices seniors and the middle class so the rich and corporations
don’t have to pay their fair share. Can you join me at the link below?

New York Budget Cuts vs. the American Dream

Hi,

 During this recession, New York has cut funding for public schools,
health care, and all sorts of programs that help the middle class. Now,
some in Albany want to repeal the Millionaire’s Tax, costing the state
billions and forcing layoffs of 15,000 teachers, snowplow drivers and
other public workers. It’s simply beyond the pale.

I signed a petition to the governor and my state legislators opposing
these cuts. Can you join me at the link below?

Stand with the people of Egypt

Hi,

Something incredible is happening in Egypt. Protests are spreading across
the country, threatening a 30-year dictatorship.

The crackdown is turning violent – the Egyptian government regularly
engages in police repression and torture, and scores of protesters have
reportedly been killed.

Egypt’s protesters share the same dreams of all people who aspire to
freedom, peace and prosperity – and they need to know that we support
them. Sign the solidarity statement below – the solidarity statement will
be broadcast via regional media to the Egyptian people. You will be heard.

We need to reverse Citizens United

Hi,

Corporations aren’t people. We all know that. But in last year’s Citizens
United decision, the Supreme Court gave corporations the same First
Amendment rights as you and me. The result was record breaking spending by
giant corporations to try to buy our elections.

We must take our democracy back. The most direct remedy we have left to
correct the Supreme Court’s awful decision is a constitutional amendment
clarifying that corporations are not people.

I signed a petition urging my state leaders to support a constitutional
amendment to reverse the Supreme Court decision. Can you join me at the
link below?
