Please join the California Labor Federation and its affiliates in sending out an ALERT about the signature gatherers, asking to call the (877) if anyone sees them collecting more signatures.  They are still collecting and we've even heard going door to door in a few places (Modesto).  It's a good sign that they still don't have enough but  they will keep collecting until Oct. 24th.  Let's keep making it hard.  Please send this to your email lists.

Thanks, Rick Wathen

Ballot Petition
Threatens Our Voice!
If you see someone collecting signatures,
Call toll free
1-877-440-9585
Billionaires and corporations are funding a signature gathering effort to put on the ballot an initiative that would take away the right of working families to have a voice in politics.  If you see anyone collecting signatures and talking about "special interests" in politics DO NOT sign and call 877-440-9585 to report where the signature gatherer is.  Volunteers will be sent to the site to tell the truth - this is not about stopping corporations or Wall Street but about limiting the voice of working people.
