[Pacg] Last Chance for VOICE - Please Call Today!

[Carolina 1961]

>From Public Campaign:

The legislative session in Iowa is winding down. The General Assembly is
scheduled to recess this Friday and the House leadership is trying to stall
passage of the Voter Owned Iowa Clean Elections (VOICE) Act that would bring
full public financing to the state's elections. The bill is currently
sitting in the House Appropriations Committee. We have the votes to bring
the legislation to the floor, but we need your help.

*Please call the following representatives and tell them to allow the VOICE
Act, HF 805, to go to the floor.*

   - *Speaker of the House Patrick Murphy
   (515) 281-3221*
   - *House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy
   (515) 281-3221*
   - *Rep. Jo Oldson, House Appropriations Committee Chair
   (515) 281-3221*

The VOICE Act would make elections in your state about voters instead of big
campaign donors. House leadership would prefer to see this bill just die in
committee, but we can't let that happen. The legislation deserves a fair
debate on the floor of the House.

*We need your help today. Please take a few minutes to call the following
legislators and tell them to support HF 805, the VOICE Act:*


   - *Speaker of the House Patrick Murphy
   (515) 281-3221*
   - *House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy
   (515) 281-3221*
   - *Rep. Jo Oldson, House Appropriations Committee Chair
   (515) 281-3221*

 With so much special interest money flowing into the elections in 2006,
these legislators are feeling pressure to bow to their big donors instead of
the interests of all voters. Put on a little pressure of your own with a few
calls. Thanks for all you do.
