Posted by Perry Willis

Quote of the day:

Democracy is the bludgeoning of the people, by the people, for the people. -- Oscar Wilde

Subject: RTBA Round-up

* "Read the Bills" coalition grows again * Downsize DC grows by one -- the slow way * Doomsday deadline * Delegate parties meet

"Read the Bills Act" Coalition:

Three more websites have joined the "Read the Bills Act" Coalition. Check them out . . .

Market Bust (blog) New York Constitution Party See for Yourself (blog)

If you are a talk show host or organization, or have a website or blog, you can join too.

The instructions are HERE.

It's as easy as adding an RTBA button, banner, or tower-ad to your website. You can get one HERE.

Downsize DC grows by one -- the slow way:

Our Programmer, Robert O’Gwynn, is now a father. Audrey Rune was born Wednesday, March 21 at 8:57 PM Central time. She was 6 lbs 15 ounces, and 21” long. Congratulations Robert!

Doomsday deadline:

There are only 7 days left for us to meet our March buget. The balance we need to raise is $5,694. Please help us. You can contribute HERE.

"Read the Bills" Delegate Parties set to meet next week:

You can attend if one of the meetings below is near you, or start your own Delegate Party in your local area. Many areas already have members signed up, but no organizer. We need more organizers! You can see if there are people signed up in your district HERE (link removed, as RTBA meetups are no more).

What Can We Do For You?

We can help you downsize the federal government, if you want that. All you have to do is join. It's free! In return...

We'll give you an army.

We're recruiting a huge army of supporters to work for what you want.

We'll give you influence.

The Downsize DC Army will exert relentless, resistance-numbing pressure on Congress.

We'll make your voice heard.

We'll use our growing army to make your beliefs heard by everyone, everywhere, every day.

We'll give you winning strategies.

Ideas like our "Read the Bills Act" and the "One Subject at a Time Act" will give you the leverage to win the public debate, control Congress, and Downsize DC!

We'll give you powerful tools.

  • Your free membership includes a subscription to our free email newsletter, the Downsizer Dispatch, which national talk show host Jerry Hughes calls by far the best newsletter he receives.
  • You'll be able to use our Educate the Powerful SystemSM to pressure Congress. It's easy. All it takes is a few mouse clicks and keyboard strokes. You can do it in your bathrobe while you're drinking your morning coffee, or during a break at work.
  • You'll also gain access to our 16-page strategy document, "The Downsize DC Vision." You'll learn about important insights like "ignoring an axiom," and powerful strategies like "picking off the herd." One reader called this document "the unified field theory" of political change.
