Impeachment By Spring: We're Off and Running!


It's been just one week since we announced ImpeachForChange in Philadelphia and the response has been tremendous!

Over 23,000 activists signed our petition - even though our overloaded server turned many away. We upgraded our server so please try again:
http://www.democrats.com/peoplesemailnetwork/88
and help us reach our goal of 1 million by forwarding the petition to your friends!

Then print copies of our simplified impeachment petition
http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/downloads/petition-4.pdf
and collect signatures from friends, co-workers, and neighbors.
Then keypunch the email addresses into our invitation letter to ask the signers to complete the full petition online. Full instructions here:

Want to End the War? Ask Congress to Do Investigations

Many committees in the House and Senate can - without taking any energy away from ending the war - finally conduct the investigations that have gone undone for 6 years, exposing evidence that could very well lead to criminal, civil, or political accountability, as well as pressure to end the war and precedent to help prevent the next war.

Here's a guide to asking your Representative and Senators to conduct investigations:

Here's the same information on a flyer you can print and distribute:

1. Be aware
That isn't the DNC website. DNC is www.democrats.org. I'm not taking a stand one way or another but just avoiding confusion. When I got the e-mail I thought the party was backing it.
