| 10-16-02 The People are Signing the Petitions: We Need Every Congressional District!
http://www.GiveMeLiberty.org/freedomdrive/redress/SignPetitions/htm As of this evening, approximately 8,000 signatures from approximately 380 of the 435 congressional districts have been collected for the Petitions for Redress of Grievances that will be presented to our Executive and Legislative branches in early November. We will await their response in DC on November 14th. These Petitions of Redress cover several topics:
To deny from Congress any excuse for failing to respond to these matters of critical and timely importance to our nation, each of these Petitions must have constituents from every single Congressional district sign them. A preliminary analysis shows that there are 55 congressional districts that have NOT signed any of these petitions. A list of House Representatives from these districts can be found below along with the state and a district number code. Please send these petitions to everyone and every organization you know in these areas and let’s get every district represented on every petition! For the first time in modern history, the right to Petition for Redress is being formally exercised and tested. Those few words penned in the 1st Amendment are not superfluous nor are they without meaning. The government's failure to respond to proper petitions submitted under this right, is the final, public admission of tyranny. The People possess sovereignty or they do not. Let us make history and take maximum advantage of this opportunity to peacefully, but forcefully, hold our servant government to the terms, conditions and limitations of power given to it by We The People in our Constitution for this nation’s government. Come to DC and join with your countrymen to await our government's responses! AL07 Earl F. Hilliard AR01 Marion Berry CA24 Brad Sherman CA26 Howard L. Berman CA30 Xavier Becerra CA32 Diane E.

Virtually all of these have been related to incorrectly typing the password or failing to have a password sent to them. When first signing in to the petition signing process, request to have your password sent to the e-mail you specify. Then simply "copy" and "paste" it into the password field.
