TESTIMONIAL of Culture Campaign "Contact My Legislator"

Dear Culture Campaign,

I wanted to write and let you know that I received a response from Senator Barack Obama when I used your website to contact my legislator. I wrote to tell him I opposed S1, Sec 220 of the ethics bill. I saw this bill was an attempt to regulate our freedom to communicate with each other about pending legislation. This bill would have imposed heavy fines for regular people like me just for sending e-mail to my friends and telling them we should do something. So, now I know your web site got my message to the people in Washington and that it is a quick and easy way to contact my Senators and Representative. Keep up the good work!

George
