What to say

  • "I'm calling to support the Fair Elections Now Act, which would result in major campaign finance reform for congressional elections. It would replace a system of special-interest funded elections with a new system of public funding plus small-dollar donations."
  • "This bipartisan bill was just introduced in the Senate by Sens. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) and Arlen Specter (D-Pa.) and in the House by Reps. John Larson (D-Conn.) and Walter Jones (R-N.C.)"
  • "As a constituent of Rep. John Shadegg, I strongly support this bill."
  • "In fact, I joined the Change Congress Funder's Pledge because I'm not giving a penny more to any member of Congress unless they support this bill." (If applicable.)
  • "Can I count on Rep. John Shadegg to sign on as a co-sponsor of the Fair Elections Now Act?"
  • The bill is S.752 in Senate, HR 1826 in House.

If the reply is yes:

  • "Thanks so much! I appreciate Rep. John Shadegg's support. Will he/she be posting a public statement of support on the website?"

If the reply is no:

  • "We wouldn't be in our current economic mess if money didn't buy influence. Big donors like Bank of America and AIG were able to win legislation that was favorable to their bottom lines but hurt ordinary Americans."
  • "We can never let this crisis happen again. Congress should serve the people, not special interests."
  • "I strongly urge Rep. John Shadegg's to support this bill."
