Get Involved From the Comfort of Your Home or Office
I've added a new section for online activism to the sidebar. Most of the sites offer petitions and/or services that email your representatives on various issues. The list is far from comprehensive, and I will continue to add to it.
Currently available action alerts:
- Tell Congress to Stop Hurting Your Healthcare
- Tell Congress John Bolton is Not Fit to be Ambassador to the U. N.
- Protect Our System of Checks and Balances
- Protect the Endangered Species Act
- Help Farmers Help the Environment - Fix Farm Subsidies
- Urge Congress to Sign the Pledge to Protect Social Security
- Urge Your Senators to Co-sponsor the Prevention First Act
I've done some volunteer work for Progressive Secretary. They do fabulous work - please sign up with them. They will email you about issues and all you need to do is click a link in the email if you would like them to send the proposed letter on your behalf.
Make it part of your day, every day to visit The Hunger Site daily. Sponsors donate food, books, funds for various causes each time you click the links on the different pages. They also offer merchandise that makes great gifts, with the profits going to these good causes.
Even if you don't have time to get involved, you might be able to make time to advocate for issues when it just takes a click of the mouse.
