Senate
approves “Rescue Plan”—Sells Out to Greedy Fat Cats
Dear Kenneth,
You’ve been hearing a lot from us lately, and we very
much appreciate the actions you’ve already taken to stop the Wall St.
bailout. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and we
desperately need your help--again. The Senate put some "lipstick on it"
and passed the bailout bill. We have a second chance to defeat it
in the House; the vote is expected by Friday.
We’re partnering with True
Majority, USAction,
and Democrats.com
to defeat the Wall St. bailout. We
want a Fair Deal for Main St., and we’re asking
our members to visit
their representative’s local office in the next 2 days
to get them on record in support of a Fair Deal for Main St.
If your Representative voted YES the first time around, then a chance
for redemption exists. This
letter is a “request for constituent services” to elicit support
for a Fair Deal for Main St. Take it with you and follow these
instructions.
If your Representative voted NO last time, leave your thanks, the
letter, and ask them to hold firm.

- Schedule your visit, or find a scheduled visit in
your district, here.

We can defeat this terrible bailout bill and provide protection for
Main St. in these vulnerable times, if we all take action on Wednesday
and Thursday.
Yours in the movement,
Tim Carpenter
PDA National Coordinator
