Stop the Internet Blacklist!
A new bill being debated this week would have the Attorney General create an Internet blacklist of sites that US Internet providers would be required to block. (The first vote is scheduled Thursday!)
This is the kind of heavy-handed censorship you'd expect from a dictatorship, where one man can decide what web sites you're not allowed to visit. But the Senate Judiciary Committee is expected to pass the bill as soon as they get back after the election -- and Senators say they haven't heard much in the way of objections! That's why we need you to sign our urgent petition to Congress demanding they oppose the Internet blacklist.Fight back against the U.S. Chamber of Commerce!
You've heard about the foreign money the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has been using to buy the 2010 elections, but did you know they're also spending your money? They've been able to spend record amounts fighting progressive policies and candidates because millions of local businesses send money to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce through local chambers of commerce.
Image via WikipediaThe U.S. Chamber of Commerce's radical right-wing agenda -- no environmental regulation, no health care, no social security -- is out-of-step with most businesses, which is why companies like Apple and Exelon have quit. Can you tell your local chamber of commerce to do the same?
PETITION TO CHAMBER MEMBERS: The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has been using your membership dues for deceptive ads and extremist lobbying. I don't want my local businesses funding such an out-of-touch agenda. You need to resign from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce immediately.
Justice Dept to Enforce Subpoenas of Peace Activists Targeted by FBI Raids | VIDEO

In the days following the raids in late September, CODEPINK, as well as a broad spectrum of peace organizations and government watchdog groups, strongly condemned the FBI for its conduct regarding the treatment of peace activists and international solidarity activists in Minneapolis and Chicago. We pledged to stand in solidarity with our brothers and sisters who have been targeted in these baseless raids. We continue to call on U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to intervene immediately to end the repression of these activists. 
Image via WikipediaTo give you a picture of what the FBI raid looked like: Agents kicked down doors of homes with guns drawn, smashed furniture, and seized computers, documents, phones, and other materials without making any arrests. It’s appalling that FBI agents in Chicago spent 12 hours confiscating personal belongings, including those of the activists’ children, cells phones, computers, and paperwork going as far back as the ‘70s. The warrants are being used as a way to intimidate and silence not only those targeted, but the entire peace movement and those that speak out against the U.S. policies in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, and Columbia.
These groups do not use guns and bombs. They are not terrorists. Their “weapons” are leaflets, newsletters, and nonviolent demonstrations.
