Adding My Snowflake

... in hopes of an avalanche.

Ron Paul introduced HR. 1207: the Federal Reserve Transparency Act, in order to get a decent audit done on the Fed. You can read a summary of the bill, or try the full text. It's still more or less plain English and reasonably short. If you're the petition signing sort, you could try the petition that Campaign for Liberty - Ron Paul's organization - has set up. Even if you don't sign, they've got a pretty good plain English explanation of what it is and why it's needed.

There are 165 cosponsors this evening. Is your Representative one of them? Have you written to thank them or encourage them to become a cosponsor?

The next step for this bill to become law is that Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House, needs to schedule it for debate and a roll call vote. You can write her and ask her to schedule it. Or there's always that petition, though I prefer to write her myself.

What say you? Are you going to write? Why or why not?
