Hey there (again),
My name's Paul Sousa and I'm a fellow Join The Impact organizer in Boston, MA. I received your email from the JTI website because I wanted to share a very important event with you.
Not a single openly gay Cabinet has ever been appointed in the entire history of the United States. With 2008 being such a historic year for shattering glass ceilings, now is the time to shatter one more for gay Americans and equal representation by appointing Fred Hochberg as Commerce Secretary.
You can help make it happen by giving just 2 minutes a day. Equal Rep is putting on a nation-wide grassroots campaign urging all participants to call (202-540-3000, press "2"), and email the Obama transition team once-a-day leading up to January 19th. And being a newly formed grassroots organization, most of the organizing takes place on the facebook event page naturally.
Now this would be no token gay appointment. Fred Hochberg is incredibly qualified. He has more than 25 years of experience in business, government, civil rights activities, and philanthropy. He has been the head of the Small Business Administration and served on Bill Clinton's Management Council among many other things. You can read about his long list of qualifications here .
So join the facebook event, invite your friends (this action is critical), and plan on giving the Obama administration a friendly, daily nudge to put his call of change into action. Here's to hoping that Fred Hochberg is the next Secretary of Commerce!
Oh, and feel free to add me as a friend on facebook as well.
Best,
Paul Sousa
