John Kerry: A Million (Virtual) People Stand with Reid at Press Conference
6 April 2005

In an email just received from John Kerry on the Filibuster issue, Kerry thanked the over ¼ million supporters who signed his petition and acknowledges that over a million people have stood up on this issue through various activist groups…

Early this afternoon, Senator Harry Reid, the Democratic Leader of the United States Senate, held a press conference on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court.

Thanks to you, there were a million people standing there with him.

That's how many dedicated individuals signed petitions and newspaper ads supporting Senator Reid's determined efforts to prevent Republican leaders from undermining democracy by making judicial nominations a narrow, one-party exercise.

I am proud to report that 236,498 of those signatures were submitted by you and other members of the johnkerry.com community. We added our nearly quarter of a million names to those collected by the Democratic National Committee, MoveOn.org and other citizens' groups.
