In a little more than two weeks the House accomplished what the previous leadership had failed to do for years: Enact the 9/11 Commission Recommendations Increase the Minimum Wage Expand Stem Cell Research Negotiate for Lower Prescription Drug Prices for Seniors Cut Interest Rates on Student Loans End Subsidies for Big Oil and Invest in Renewable Energy And this is just the beginning. Voters called for change in November, and they expect their members of Congress to continue to deliver change. Americans United for Change is a critical part of this effort because it puts grassroots pressure on legislators where it matters most -- in their home districts. The work is already paying off: each of these items passed with resounding bipartisan majorities because of the action on the ground by people like you. The Senate just passed the Fair Minimum Wage Act, and that important measure will soon be sitting on the President's desk. That's progress -- and there's more to come. Whether it's minimum wage or the war in Iraq, Americans deserve the change they have been promised. Make no mistake -- it's a tough fight because the stakes are so high. Please take a moment and make a down payment on continued vigilance on the issues that matter to ordinary Americans. You and the American people have worked so hard to get to this point, and Americans United for Change has helped lead the way. http://www.americansunitedforchange.org/pelosi How does Americans United for Change work? While Congress works feverishly in Washington, Americans United for Change has been running an aggressive field program in congressional districts across the country. Americans United for Change serves as the boots on the ground rallying public support and holding Members of Congress accountable for their actions on behalf of American families. Americans United for Change has made real progress -- real change -- on these important issues, and these early successes are just the tip of the iceberg. If Americans are going to get real change in real time, it's going to take sustained communication with Members of Congress. Americans United for Change exists to make sure that the people and the headlines back home send a clear message to the Members of Congress who might try to block real progress. Americans United for Change has begun budgeting for the next push right now, and your donation can help them hire that extra field organizer, play in another district or print another thousand leaflets. You called for change; now help Americans United for Change deliver it: http://www.americansunitedforchange.org/pelosi In 2005, the team at Americans United for Change led the charge to stop President Bush's effort to privatize Social Security -- and won. In 2006, they led the national media campaign for real change and a new set of American priorities -- and won. Please help Americans United for Change have as dramatic an impact on 2007. Make a donation now: http://www.americansunitedforchange.org/pelosi The days of a do-nothing Congress may be over -- but the fight for change is only in the first round. Thank you for being part of the fight. Speaker Nancy Pelosi
