From the "it can't happen here department" (aka, the "how bad can it get department"):
MoveOn.org is urging people to call their representatives regarding proposed new FEC rules:
"The Republican National Committee is pressing the Federal Election Commission ("FEC") to issue new rules that would shut down groups that dare to communicate with the public in any way critical of President Bush or members of Congress. Incredibly, the FEC has just issued -- for public comment -- proposed rules that would do just that. Any kind of non-profit -- conservative, progressive, labor, religious, secular, social service, charitable, educational, civic participation, issue-oriented, large, and small -- could be affected by these rules."
Go to MoveOn.org to take action. If you're not already signed up to get MoveOn's Action Alerts, please take a second and
do it! Thanks!
