Click Back America

For my fellow college student readers, here is a message I got from Moveon.org today:

President Bush has frozen funding for student aid. And now he's hitting young people up for a massive loan. His new budget will increase the national debt by a half-trillion dollars this year alone. Of course, young people are the ones who will have to pay down Bush's debt through higher taxes and cuts to vital services.

Students, send this message to Bush: LOAN DENIED!

A new site we've helped launch provides a funny and productive way to say no to the Bush loan. Click the link below to reject Bush's credit -- and when you do, MoveOn Voter Fund will earn $1 in matching funds.

President Bush has asked all Americans to go into further debt, not for priorities such as education but for tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and our war with Iraq. Bush, in his most recent budget, has asked all of us for a $4,500 loan against our future earnings. This is in addition to the $13,000 each of us already owes for the national debt, now totaling more than $7 trillion.

The campaign to reject George Bush‚s credit is part of a new effort the MoveOn.org Voter Fund is co-sponsoring called the „College Click Drive,‰ together with a group called Click Back America. Click Back America is a great way for college students to get active. And for every student that takes action, the MoveOn Voter Fund gets a $1 contribution for our efforts to expose Bush Administration policies. We‚ll be tracking how students around the country do, and the school with the most matching contributions will win a big prize.
