1.  Tell Tom & Tom to fully fund the Clean Elections law!
-------------------------------------------------------------

This message is also at http://www.jamesokeefe.org/TakeAction

We are urging our supporters to make two simple calls to 
support fully funding the Clean Elections Law. Fully funding 
the Clean Elections Law will help get big money out of 
politics and ensure that our campaign's voice is heard.

Please call Speaker Finneran and Senate President 
Birmingham at: 

Finneran's #: 617-722-2500
Birmingham's #: 617-722-1500 

The message is simple:

"I want the budget conference committee to fully fund Clean 
Elections NOW." 

Please call and spread the word to your friends and family.  
Thanks!

2.  Mass. Voters for Clean Elections seeks phonebankers
-------------------------------------------------------------

Mass. Voters for Clean Elections is asking supporters to come
into the MVCE office at 37 Temple Place in Boston to help 
with phonebanking next week.  They will pay $10/hour for 
phonebankers and calls can be done day or night.  If you are 
interested in helping please call them at 617.451.5999 or 
888.775.2475 (toll-free in Massachusetts) or email 
ddonnelly at massvoters.org.

3.  Campaign volunteers needed
-------------------------------------------------------------

Jamie O'Keefe's campaign for State Treasurer is picking up 
steam, and we need volunteers to mount a real challenge to 
Massachusetts' irresponsible and destructive investment 
policies. Whatever your talents and abilities, you can help. 
We need people for standouts and public outreach, fundraising,
house parties, telephone banking, envelope stuffing, and many 
other activities and tasks.  

Most immediately, we will be tabling that the Boston 
Vegetarian Food Festival this Saturday (10/13) at the Reggie 
Lewis Center.  You can come and spread the word while 
sampling great food.  You can find more information
on this event at:

http://www.jamesokeefe.org/calendar/events/boston_vegetarian_food_festival.html

Also, on Saturday, October 20th, we will be at the Stone Bone 
Feather Festival in Amesbury.  You can find more information
on this event at:

http://www.jamesokeefe.org/calendar/events/stone_bone_feather_fest.html

Please contact the campaign at 617-628-2922 to help out!

Come and help us build the Green movement!

Volunteer Coordinator

4.  James O'Keefe to be on WMBR's Radio with a View, 10/16

James O'Keefe and other Green Party candidates will be on 
WMBR's Radio with a View.  The program runs from 6:30pm to 
8pm and James should be on around 7pm.  You can hear it on 
88.1fm and is broadcast in the Boston-Cambridge area.  You

5.  Web site updated!  New look and feel and more features!
-------------------------------------------------------------

With the help of Medford Green, Jason King, and others, we 
redesigned the web site to improve its look and add more
features to it.  New features include expanded issues, 
volunteer, contribute and contact pages.  There is an 
"In the News" section that contains most of the articles that
have mentioned the campaign.  The site also includes an 
events section.  

We have also added a Take Action section that will list ways 
supporters can take action on the issues the campaign is 
fighting for including supporting the Clean Elections law and 
opposing corporate welfare.

We will continue to expand the web site to help supporters 
organize the campaign from the grassroots and provide 
valuable feedback and oversight of James O'Keefe.  If you
would like to help with the web site please email
info at jamesokeefe.org.
