getting city to move money out of banks

Wow. In less than two days, more than 5,000 people have committed to rolling up their sleeves and organizing city and town resolutions to get money out of politics.

There's a great track record of victories that began with city and town resolutions, and grew to become major national movements. This is going to be big.

Here's how to get started:

We need more people in your area. Tell five people in your community to sign up here: http://bit.ly/aaa_signup -- tweet it, post it, blog it
Dive into steps 1, 2 and 3 in the plan. Figure out people and organizations in your area who could help; think about how to talk about the issue; and learn about your city council. When do they hold meetings? Which members might support this project?

That's step one. I'll be back in touch with you next week to check in, and provide more guidance and tools to help you organize.

Until then, please let me know if you have any questions.

Let's get another 5,000 before next week. Onward!
