FYI...just another easy way to write to your Congress Member, asking  
them to not sign on as a Cosponsor to PUPS, 2011 or if already there,  
to withdraw the sponsorship.

  Subject: Introducing POPVOX, from the creator of GovTrack.us

  Dear GovTrack user:

  I?m excited to personally introduce you to GovTrack?s new sister  
site, POPVOX, atwww.popvox.com, where you can write letters to  
Congress and see what others are saying.

  Here's what POPVOX does:
  Your letters to Congress are delivered and verified.
  POPVOX delivers constituent messages to appropriate Congressional  
offices as well as posts them publicly to the site to extend their  
influence. Our sign-up process is designed to help you write the most  
effective letter, based on our experience on Capitol Hill. You'll even  
receive a confirmation when your message is delivered to a  
Congressional office.

  What people are saying on bills in Congress.
  POPVOX?s public, nonpartisan platform for legislation overlays  
individuals? comments on pending bills, legislative positions taken by  
organizations/trade groups, and statements offered by Congress and the  
Administration?on top of the same basic bill information you trust  
from GovTrack. POPVOX puts meat on a bill?s bones.

  Direct access to sentiment in your district.
  Reports on constituent sentiment enable Congress, organizations and  
the media to gauge how people perceive issues through real-life stories.

  Bill reports with bottom-line data.
  POPVOX?s Bill Report provides proof positive of constituent  
sentiment on specific bills. And with a cumulative line graph of  
support vs. opposition over time, it?s also a great way to assess  
trends.

  Widgets and advocacy tools for organizations.
  Embed customized advocacy tools onto your own websites, including a  
Comment Stream and Write Congress tool. Organizations can design their  
own legislative campaign landing page (with a custom short URL) and  
direct people to act on specific bills.

  I hope you will try out POPVOX and share it with your friends,  
family and community. To see what POPVOX users are weighing in on in  
real-time, visit www.popvox.com/bills. Let me know what you think by  
dropping me a note at info@xxxxxxxxxxx
  PS. See what The Washington Post had to say.
  Thanks so much,

  Josh Tauberer
  Founder of GovTrack, and
  CTO and co-founder of POPVOX
