With your help, the ACLU is putting all 535 members of Congress on notice: stand up for the Constitution or face a tidal wave of criticism and pressure from your constituents.

Our “leaders” in Washington keep telling us to wait for a more politically expedient time to restore our freedoms. Well, the ACLU has a message for them: Don’t Wait for ’08! That’s the rallying cry during our critical campaign demanding immediate action from Congress to restore our constitutional rights and to hold the Bush Administration accountable for its abuses. The ACLU is calling on everyone across America who cares about liberty and the state of the nation to let Congress know we demand action on these crucial issues. Put your Members of Congress on notice today, ask them: Will you defend the Constitution?
I made the committment. Will you make a committment to the Constitution? I just emailed my Members of Congress to ask them one thing: Will you make a commitment to the Constitution?
It's time for Congress to stop caving in and start standing up to the Bush Administration. And our "leaders" in Washington keep saying they're waiting for a more politically expedient time to restore our freedoms. I say, Don't Wait for '08!
Help get all 535 members of Congress to go on the record about one thing: Will you defend the Constitution? And will you defend it now?
