An alliance of labor, environmental, civil rights, business, and
political leaders laid out a vision for a "New Apollo Project" to
create 3.3 million new jobs and achieve energy independence in ten
years. Named after President Kennedy's moon program, which inspired
a major national commitment to the aerospace industry, the Apollo
Alliance aims to unify the country behind a ten-year program of strategic
investment for clean energy technology and new infrastructure.
Worried about the 2004 Presidential election? Concerned that paperless
electronic voting machines might not record votes correctly? There
is good reason for concern!!
Many computer scientists warn that existing test and certification
procedures for electronic voting machines (EVM) are completely inadequate
and that EVMs suffer from design weaknesses and security holes that
make them vulnerable to software bugs, hardware malfunctions, deliberate
tampering, and widespread fraud, thus posing serious risks to our
democracy.
But with grassroots action, this situation can
and is being turned around!
To learn more about the costs, benefits, and risks posed by EVMs,
as well as what you can do to support pending crucial legislation
in Congress to require all EVMs used in federal elections to produce
a voter-verified paper ballot, please visit: http://www.verifiedvoting.org
