[Vision2020] FW: Take Back America

[TIM RIGSBY]

You are amazing.  Yesterday, we asked you to email members of Congress and 
tell them to raise the minimum wage.  And, in less than one day, you've sent 
over 25,000 emails!
>
>Yet, despite the fact that 84% of Americans support raising the minimum 
>wage, corporate lobbyists and their right-wing politicians in the U.S. 
>Senate just killed an amendment which would have raised the minimum wage to 
>a mere $7.25 per hour.  In fact, over the last ten years, Wal-Mart has 
>given political contributions to 90% of the senators who opposed the 
>minimum wage.
>
>Corporate America's victory is the American people's defeat.  Here's the 
>simple truth:
>We can't have real change in America when big corporations, like Wal-Mart, 
>are able to use our government to work against the best interests of the 
>American people.
>
>If you want real change in America, and I know you do, the only way to do 
>it is to take our country back from the big corporate special interests 
>like Wal-Mart.  And, while we are off to an amazing start with over 241,000 
>supporters, we need at least 1 million people to really change America.
>
>Help us take back America today.  Please get 5 more friends to sign our 
>petition to tack back America:

>
>The American people are hungry for change, but Wal-Mart and big 
>corporations are taking America in the wrong direction.
>
>Just look at Wal-Mart's right-wing agenda:
>- Ship U.S. jobs overseas
>- Oppose expanding health care to working families
>- Oppose a living wage
>- Endanger national security by weakening port security
>
>We will not sit back and let Wal-Mart destroy America's jobs and health 
>care.  It's time to take back America and put people first.
>
>Help us take back America today.  Please get 5 more friends to sign our 
>petition to tack back America:
>
>http://www.wakeupwalmart.com/feature/takebackamerica
>
>You might ask, why is signing up five more friends the most critical thing 
>I can do to change America?
>
>Here's the reason.  We can't take back America alone.  Everyone must join 
>together and fight for what kind of America we want to live in.  Remember, 
>the faster we grow, the faster we change America.  Eventually our 240,000 
>supporters will become one million, an unstoppable force for change.
>
>Together, we have the power to change Wal-Mart, change America for the 
>better and improve the lives of millions of people.
>
>Please help us take back America today.
