Got Dough? How Billionaires Rule Our Schools →
To justify their campaign, ed reformers repeat, mantra-like, that U.S. students are trailing far behind their peers in other nations, that U.S. public schools are failing. The claims are specious.

Copy and Paste this or something similar!
I am one of your constituents and I am asking you not to support the Stop Online Piracy Act our the PROTECT-IP Act. These bills would radically disrupt the structure of the internet, censor free speech, turn the judicial system on its head by making the accused guilty until proven otherwise, overburden businesses which kills jobs, and will do very little...
