[AGL] Fwd: Frances Morey recommends "Call for a Change" @www.moveon.org

[Margaret Martone]

Frances: I LOVE your picture, too! I've been working out of the local 
Move-On office calling for about 3 or 4 weeks now and I've been able to 
recruit a number of people to call from their homes. Keep up the good work. 
We need more of us to win back Congress.

Regards,
Margaret
