Speaking of which

Just got this in the inbox from color of change:
“Last week, the Democrats launched their “100 hours” agenda–a plan to begin a “new direction for our country.” Sadly, it says nothing about Congress’s continued abandonment of those left behind after Katrina.
A plan to bring survivors home exists. The Gulf Coast Civic Works Project would hire 100,000 displaced residents who want to return, providing them with training and jobs to rebuild their homes and communities. It’s a solution that would rebuild the Gulf by investing in its residents, but Congress won’t act without massive public support.
More than ever, those of us who seek justice for Katrina survivors must make our voices heard. Please join us and demand that Congress put Katrina back on the agenda and enact a plan to help displaced residents return and rebuild.”
