Sending Katrina survivors to DC!

The Campaign for America's Future is trying to bring Katrina survivors to Washington, DC. The idea is that their voices need be heard in DC, in the media and in front of politicians. Us bloggers can say how bad the disaster planning was, and how bad the republican's plans to rebuild the area are, but the voices of the victims is more likely to be heard. The individuals who are going haven’t been named yet, and I'll be interested in seeing who is chosen.

What is also impressive is that The Campaign for America's Future started a fundraiser yesterday asking for ONE dollar and they have already raised $17,411. Very impressive especially since I'd never have thought asking for a buck to work. Their goal seems to be $20,000.
