2008 REFORM NY DAY OF ACTION - APRIL 29, 2008

Tuesday, April 29th at The Sign of the Tree at the Empire State Plaza in Albany, NY

Join us for Reform Day in Albany so you can personally call on our elected leaders to pass badly-needed reforms. Tell Albany's leaders that Enough is Enough!

Enough... of rules that concentrate Albany's power in the hands of only three men.

Enough... of sham ethics investigations conducted by partisan boards.

Enough... of campaign finance rules that allow incumbents to scare off high-quality, first-time candidates.

Enough... of district lines drawn by a majority party, with nothing in mind but the preservation of that majority.

Enough... of campaign funds subsidizing the personal lives of elected officials.
