Deny DeLayMarch 03, 2005If it was up to Texas House Speaker Tom Craddick, the American public would never find out whether U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay broke the law with his campaign fundraising practices. In early February, Craddick's office introduced legislation to protect DeLay. If passed, the legislation would halt the Travis County, Texas district attorney's investigation into DeLay's role in raising hundreds of thousands of corporate contributions. That means the public wouldn't ever know if DeLay used political contributions to buy power in Washington and rig voting districts in Texas. Join Public Campaign Action Fund and send a message to Craddick: No one is above the law. Stop protecting DeLay and allow the investigation to move forward. With the civil trial in Texas against DeLay's PAC in progress this week, there's still time for influence.ACT NOW |
