MoveOn.org: Tsunami Relief

MoveOn.org: Tsunami Relief: "Dear friend,

The tsunami in southern Asia and Africa may be the worst natural disaster of our time. More than 116,000 lives were wiped out within hours.

Rising to this challenge is at the heart of global leadership, and the world is depending on us. The U.S government can lead billions of dollars of aid into this relief effort, if it chooses. Americans are generous and ready to step forward, but the U.S. Congress and the Bush administration have made a weak initial contribution to the effort -- first offering $15 million and then $35 million when they came under pressure. Clearly, we can do more.

Let Congress and the President know that Americans are supporting strong leadership on this relief effort, at:

Thanks."
