Online Action Items!
First round of voting on Change.org ends today
Two websites are allowing people to speak up about the issues they
want President-Elect Obama to address when he takes office. The
first is his official website:
<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001-2LVsNHBH99WwFrF1YTJb0BqF0TD9BtUhEMeLbElkEGuPRiBJumMkwl7MaVXaG9DLvLesRaS1Vd9RJykyUxj9WI9nTPKtFSasp7a7gG4ie4=>www.change.gov.
The second is a private website:
<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001-2LVsNHBH98nyrOfJ_wvYy5CZc8XTkEXMucmAR5mQyL8minj7WNMN-dnDldRdsZavA2VMgAJvo_GzIRZh-0w9wsmFGy5A0pg8xIweugaIMw=>www.change.org.
On both sites, only the top ideas will be presented to the
administration, based on a voting process.
Both sites are currently running questions related to stopping the
National Animal Identification System. The Change.Org site closes
voting on the questions today! So as you make plans to ring in the
new year, take a moment to make your voice heard.
Change.Org - Voting Ends Today!
The private website,
<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001-2LVsNHBH98nyrOfJ_wvYy5CZc8XTkEXMucmAR5mQyL8minj7WNMN-dnDldRdsZavA2VMgAJvo_GzIRZh-0w9wsmFGy5A0pg8xIweugaIMw=>www.change.org,
will present the "Top 10 Ideas for America" to the Obama
Adminsitration on Inauguration Day.
The first phase of the voting ends today, and the top 3 ideas in
each category will be selected for the second round of
voting. "Stop NAIS" is currently in third place in Agriculture, and
the voting is very close! A few votes may make the difference
between the Stop NAIS message making it to the next round, or not!

Be sure to click the box labeled "vote!" to the left of the Stop
NAIS! Simply leaving a comment does not count as a vote.
Change.Gov
The Obama Transition Team has set up a section calld "Open for
Questions" on the official website. They have not specified the
deadline for submitting or voting on questions, but said they will
respond to the top issues "in the new year."
Step 1: Go to
<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001-2LVsNHBH98ObP1lhH38i93Py_tN982kuuw7l5J69XLkLb5lBov84lHzD3yKHoWQkQShKMJfdDuHIaFYvcyFR0ZR9mC7lIReowwhASQ1DX988DywyqH4GcoPE77wpel_CWRP5RPLVKLpWwGfS4QNpk0GnEgLK5Bk>http://change.gov/page/content/openforquestions20081229/
Step 2: Type "animal identification" into the box next to "Search
Questions" There are currently 8 questions that involve NAIS that
can be found by searching those terms.
Step 3: Click on the checkmark by the question to vote "yes". If
you are not already signed in, you will be asked to, with a link at
the top of the box.
We wish everyone a safe and happy New Year! Thank you for all of
your activism and support in 2008.
Sincerely,
