We know this is incredibly short notice, but it's important.On Monday, November 16th, the Wisconsin Assembly will vote on the Campaign Finance Deform () and GAB Destruction () legislation. As you know, both measures passed in the State Senate in the dark of night last weekend.Tomorrow, Friday – at 10 AM in the Assembly Parlor (just off the Assembly Chamber in the State Capitol) – Common Cause in Wisconsin and other reformers will gather with State Representativeof Madison and former State Representativeof Appleton to briefly discuss whatought to look like, instead of what passage and enactment of Assembly Bill 387 will cause: the unleashing of a tsunami of secret, special interest money in our elections and public policy-making; the legalization of formerly illegal coordination of candidate campaigns with "outside" special interest groups; and the unlimited corporate and wealthy donor money that will flood the Capitol and promote political corruption., we need you to come to the Assembly Parlor and stand with us against political corruption and in support of disclosure, transparency, and sensible limits on special interest money in our politics and elections. It won't take much time, but legislators and the media need to know thatWisconsinites are opposed to the sale of our state to out-of-state (and some in-state) wealthy donors and interest groups.So help us "Pack the Parlor" on Friday morning at 10:00 AM inState Capitol Building.Read or re-read; and/orif you require any further inspiration.Hope to see you Friday morning in the Assembly Parlor in the Capitol!
