3. Kids First Campaign
View the Ad: http://www.keepingamericaspromise.com/video/kidsfirstad7009.html

For George Bush and the Republican leaders in Congress, focusing on their power and their reckless agenda is a subject of endless fascination. But, we can't let them totally ignore America's families any longer. We've got to act now to change the subject.

It's time to talk about what matters most to America's families, beginning with the 11 million children in America who live without health insurance. You can help change the conversation by supporting a powerful new TV ad. By acting right now, you can put the compelling message of the Kids First campaign on the air.

We've had enough of Bill Frist, Tom DeLay and their obsession with partisan wrangling, enough of them ignoring America's families while they jump through hoops to meet the demands of their most extreme supporters.

Following last year's elections, I made the Kids First Act of 2005 my top legislative priority. From organizing a Kids First Petition drive that now has over 700,000 signatures to traveling the country promoting our bill, I've poured time and attention into moving Kids First forward. And so have you.

At key moments, you've taken action to provide momentum to our Kids First initiative. We both acted because we know that nothing matters more than helping children living without health care.

Now, it's time to take to the airwaves and carry the Kids First message - and the Kids First cause - even further. The ad I've enclosed is being put on the air by Keeping America's Promise, a political action committee determined to "give voice to our values" in the most critical legislative and electoral contests of 2005 and 2006.

I'm urging each and every member of the johnkerry.com community to get involved in this effort - especially people like you, those who saw the importance of putting Kids First from the very beginning.

With your immediate help, this Kids First ad will run across America, focused where it can do the most good -- in the hometowns of politicians like Bill Frist, Rick Santorum, Tom DeLay and Trent Lott. They are the ones who can either move forward with efforts to help uninsured children and their families or block those efforts.

We're going to insist that they act. Real reform to make sure America's children don't have to live without health care isn't even on the radar screen for Tom DeLay, Bill Frist, George Bush and other Republican leaders.

They're too busy protecting their own power and forcing extreme judges and radical proposals through Congress. Let's use our power to put Kids First.

If you've had it with politicians ignoring what matters most to America's families, now is the time to act. The Kids First ad and the entire Kids First effort have a single goal - to create a groundswell of popular support for this essential legislation -- one that can't be denied by the endless foot-dragging of Republican leaders in Congress.

I urge you to help press forward on this vitally important task. Together, we will give voice to our values - and we won't stop working until we win.

Sincerely,

John Kerry

P.S. We have a lot of work to do in the days ahead. But, no work we do together in the days and weeks ahead will be more important than the challenge before us right now - the challenge of helping 11 million children get the health care they need and deserve.
