Protect Civil Liberties! Sign the ACLU pledge
In the name of fighting terrorism, the Bush Administration
has pursued policies that have eroded many of the freedoms
Americans hold dear. Principles that made the United
States the envy of the world, such as the right to privacy
for law-abiding citizens, are under threat like never
before.

As the Bush Administration develops its second term agenda
and members of Congress are asked to consider a new crop
of political appointees, we urge you to take the
"I Refuse to Surrender My Freedom" pledge:
http://www.care2.com/go/z/19214

Remind our elected officials that, as a patriotic American,
you strongly believe in:

- The right to voice dissent
- A woman's right to choose
- A clear separation of church and state
- The extension of equal rights to all people, including
lesbians and gays
- An amended Patriot Act that enhances US security while
safeguarding our privacy

In cooperation with the American Civil Liberties Union,
our goal is to recruit 100,000 citizens by Inauguration
Day to take this simple pledge:

"I pledge to join with over 400,000 ACLU members and
supporters to help ensure that the President, his
administration, and our leaders in Congress fulfill their
duty to preserve, protect, and defend our Constitution."

Take the pledge now and stand strong in support of freedom:

2. Better yet!
Join the ACLU. I can now honestly say to people, "I am a card carrying member of the ACLU"
