Say Hello to The Fearless Campaign

By Jeralyn

Launching Wednesday: The Fearless Campaign

The Fearless Campaign is an effort launched from the halls of Congress to effectively coordinate fearless members of Congress with the passion of grassroots advocates to transform our country from the inside out. Through the Fearless Campaign we will revolutionize our nation's approach to six issues where special interests have blocked progress for too long: drug policy, education, food policy, immigration, internet freedom and LGBT equality.

The premise:

Being Fearless is never easy. It requires moral courage and a solid grassroots backing. But by connecting advocates at the grassroots level with those in Congress who are standing up for progress, the Fearless Campaign will move our country forward.

Sounds good to me. Who's behind it? Congressman Jared Polis (D-CO). Co-sponsors of tomorrow evening's launch event:[More...]

Camilo Acosta, Aniello Alioto, Charles Barone, Darcy Burner, Steve Fox, Karl Frisch, Brooks Garber, Adam Green, Arshad Hasan, Aaron Houston, Michael Huttner, Brian Komar, Elizabeth Kucinich, Michael Mitchell, Ali Noorani, Bill Piper, Amy Pritchard, Robert Raben, Ali Savino, Babs Siperstein, Heather Smith, Gigi Sohn, Keith Stroup and Stephanie Taylor.
