New TV Ads On the Way! + An Important Action Alert

“The day we see the truth and cease to speak is the day we begin to die.”
 -Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Dear Friends,

We would like to extend our deepest thanks to Mark Stepnoski for generously offering $10,000 to match all donations made to the BuildingWhat? campaign during the last three days of 2010.  Supporters across the country and around the world rose to the occasion, giving nearly $30,000 on top of Mark’s $10,000 to bring the campaign to $67,000.  Thank you all for your generous support and your belief in our strategy.

In the next few weeks we will be releasing a series of brand new TV ads.  Without giving anything away, we are confident in saying these new ads will generate much publicity and create a groundswell of public demand for a new Building 7 investigation leading up to the 10th Anniversary.

ACTION ITEM

To help pave the way towards that day, we have an important action item that will take you only two minutes to complete.  Please help us send 500 emails to the Speaker of the New York City Council to inform her that 2010 was only the beginning of our campaign, and our calls for the empanelment an independent commission to investigate Building 7 will grow as the 10th Anniversary of 9/11 approaches.

Once you send your email you will be asked to click a button to record your participation.  This button is on the webpage and transparently displays the total number of letters sent, so we are counting on you to show our numbers.  You do not need to be a resident of New York City—we encourage people everywhere to contact Speaker Quinn.  Press the button below to take action now.

I told Speaker Quinn it was her moment to enter history and that the wind of the truth in her sails would carry us all far.

I tried to participate but the contact option on her page has been disabled.

It is working now.

I hope she is moved to do the right thing.

Fundraising Idea

I think it would be great if the BuildingWhat? group set up a mobile text donation number for quick and easy contributions. Often when I talk to people the street about the campaign, they always ask what can they do? I tell them to donate. However, I know many of them, by the time they get home, slip away into other things and forget to follow up. With text donations I, along with others, can instruct people on the spot on how to help and donate.
