Poll - Which Woman would you vote for/against - across the spectrum - interesting….kat

Senate to vote on whether to reject an FCC decision that would let tycoons like Rupert Murdoch set the news agenda.

Over the past six months, more than 250,000 people have urged Congress to stop the FCC from scrapping media ownership limits. Last week, the Senate Commerce Committee took the first step, unanimously approving a “resolution of disapproval” that would reject the FCC’s move.

Now the resolution is going to be voted on by the full Senate, your senators could make the difference!

I just called my senator - kay bailey hutchinson - who rarely does anything i want, but i did it anyway.

here’s a link to get your senator’s information and talking points:  https://secure.freepress.net/site/Advocacy?alertId=127&pg=makeACall&JServSessionIdr007=db5xapipq2.app45b
