Change Congress: First go here to sign up for the Donor Strike. The next time you get an email from a politician check this list and if they are one a supporter then thank them. If not reply to their email and include this link: http://change-congress.org/no to tell them you aren’t going to give a dime until they go to work for you, not the lobbyists. They also have a free sticker design you can put on snail mail letters asking for cash. Donor strike sticker

It’s all about campaign financing - “ Just Say No”
If you haven't already joined the Change-Congress donor strike, please do so today. Then, just "No" to fundraising requests from any politician who has not yet supported citizen-funded elections. Here's how, in a couple easy steps:
1. Check to see if the federal candidate asking you for money is a supporter by clicking here. If he or she is, then please thank them.
If he or she is not a supporter, and they asked you for money by email, just respond by sending back this link: http://change-congress.org/no
(CC us too! We'd love to see it! info@change-congress.org)
If he or she is not a supporter, and they asked you for money by direct mail, download our free donor strike sticker design here. You can print them out and tape them to your reply -- or buy an Avery 10-pack on Amazon or at a local store. Then, slap it on the fundraising request and send it back!
