The White House has released just TODAY a new tool to allow people to influence goverment called "We the People." It is essentially a petition site, and they promise: "If a petition meets the signature threshold, it will be reviewed by the Administration and an official response will be issued. And we’ll make sure that the petition is sent to the appropriate policy makers in the Administration." The White House promises an official response to every petition that garners at least 5000 signatures in a span of 30 days. [As of this (Friday 9/23) morning, this petition has already garnered over 10,000 signatures.]
This is a petition that really matters, so please use this as an opportunity to help Sholom Rubashkin.
Tell President Obama to stop ignoring 47 members of Congress and many others
