Dear Friends,

Thank you! As a result of your generous support in the last week, NYC CAN has been able to TRIPLE the size of its petitioning staff. For the next two and a half weeks, we will be able to collect 1,000 signatures everyday and skyrockect our total to nearly 60,000.

On Sunday, May 17, 2009, we eclipsed the milestone of 40,000 signatures!

With that number, we are almost guaranteed to have over 30,000 valid signatures – the magic number that requires City Council to vote on putting the referendum on the ballot. In six weeks, we will have enough that City Council’s vote will not matter – it will go on the ballot automatically. On November 3, 2009, millions of New Yorkers will go to the polls to vote on the formation of a new, independent Commission to finally conduct a real investigation of 9/11.

We urge you now more than ever to dig deep so we can continue this effort past the next two weeks and reach our final goal of 75,000 signatures.

We need only 1,200 of you out there to act now and become members of NYC CAN by donating just $25, and we will surpass the $30,000 required to fund the rest of our petitioning effort.

Thinkers think and talkers talk. Patriots ACT.
