Good Sunday All-
I'm glad to report that we're now over 280,000 signatures on the petition. We are again asking everyone to please boost this petition instead of donating to us. About one-third of all of our signatures come from boosting, and I believe that getting over 300,000 signatures is doable in the next few days, and this will help us with the media. Please make this happen. Boosts of $25 or more are best if you can do it. It is worth it. This is not a great time for us to be foregoing donations, but it is worth it in the long run. I hope you can appreciate that fact.
Speaking of the media: We have a number of major publications considering the petition as we speak. We can and should do more to get more reporters interested. We've already gotten good coverage from Fox News Radio, and Minnesota Progressive Radio, but we need more. We have our studio by and large set up here in Wisconsin, and we are ready and able to be doing interviews all day long. Please contact a news organization, set them up. We will gladly knock 'em down!
Please also don't forget to contact the judiciary staffer of your republican senator (s) this coming week, and demand that they cosponsor S. 1414. This will return bankruptcy protections to the loans that remain after all federal loans are cancelled. Don't ask. Demand. Talk tough. It would seem that is all they will listen to!
These are our loans to extinguish. Our problem to solve. Let's get 'er done.
