Tired Of Hearing "No We Can't" Instead of "YES WE CAN"?

Well, you're not alone.

In fact, we'd like to invite you to join Louisiana United for Change in recognizing both the President's 100 Days of Progress and "YES WE CAN" as well as Congressman Joseph Cao's 100 days of "No We Can't" this Wednesday, April 29th.

We will be gathering outside Congressman Cao's New Orleans office this Wednesday at 4pm to call on him to start representing the struggling Louisianan middle-class by supporting the President's efforts to turn the corner on the worst economic crisis in generations.

Representative Cao and the Republican Party of No overwhelmingly opposed transformational legislation signed into law by President Obama that is helping lay a solid foundation for economic growth by strengthening the middle class, including legislation to expand children's healthcare program for 4 million kids in need, legislation to help ensure women receive equal pay for equal work, and a jobs and economic recovery plan that is ahead of schedule and under budget towards creating or saving 3.5 million jobs and providing 95 percent of Americans with tax relief.

On the heels of Representative Cao's most recent opposition to President Obama's historic budget plan, local constituents will call on the Congressman to change course, abandon the failed policies of the past, and support the President's blueprint for long-term economic growth through transformational investments in healthcare, education, and clean energy when it comes back to floor of Congress for a final vote as soon as this week.

    What: Rally to call on Rep. Cao's to stop saying "No We Can't" to his constituents.
    Where: Congressman Cao's District Office
    When: This Wednesday, April 29th at 4pm

If you haven't watched the ad, please take a moment to do so and then read what you can do RIGHT NOW to get involved with the efforts to deliver on healthcare, education, and energy reform both today and in the weeks and months ahead.

So how can you help today to help deliver REAL CHANGE?

Second, you can write a letter to the editor (LTE) to your local newspaper in support of the President's budget and the path it provides us to comprehensive health care, energy and education reform.

Third, you can call Congressman Cao to let him know you are tired of "No We Can't" and that it's time for "YES WE CAN" both at his local number and DC office:

Local - (504) 483-2325
DC - (202) 225-6636

We hope you'll take a moment to get involved and hope to see you this Wednesday or at future events!

Stay tuned for more....
