We may or may not achieve passage of the Fair Elections Now Act in Congress this year. There are powerful interests arrayed against any change. But we should use every opportunity - such as the hearings next week - to build awareness among our lawmakers and to demonstrate citizen support for these reforms. And we should use the opportunity to reach out to neighbors, co-workers and friends in other organizations, that we can bring about the democracy we seek - if we work for it.

Let's do it!
