I am the creator of the
FairTax Speaker web site, but more specifically of the Congressional Contact System (CCS).
The CCS allows FairTax supporters to wage e-mail and other campaigns directly at their members of Congress. Most importantly, it allows site members to see what other members are doing in their district and state and around the country by seeing the messages that have been sent and the volume of messages any particular member of Congress has received pertaining to a particular campaign.
No longer will you have to make a call to action and wonder whether anyone took the requested action.
The system is built to handle state legislatures, as well as any web site or organization that has a form to complete or can receive e-mail messages, faxes, or telephone calls.
As soon as volunteers come forward to maintain a state's legislature, I will implement the state legislature feature for that state and turn it over to the volunteers.
If someone at Pickens Plan wants to take advantage of the CCS, please contact me.

I'll visit the site and learn more about it.
Now that you’ve taken the plunge here’s what you can do right now to help bump up the pledge numbers before Inauguration day. Download and print this NO SIGNATURE REQUIRED petition form:
http://media.pickensplan.com/downloads/PP/pollingsignupsheet.pdf
When speaking to friends, family and colleagues, either in person or on the phone, ask them if they agree with the objective of American Independence from foreign oil. Just slip it into the conversation between the corporate babble, recipe exchange or play date logistics.
When they say YES (most will), tell them you’re going to include their name on a Pickens Plan Petition for our ENERGY INDEPENDENCE. NO ONE will call or bug them (except perhaps you) to join the organization or do anything further if they elect not to.
Fill out the form with their name, email, zip code and phone and FAX to the number on the form and you’re done. You will get credit for the sign ups toward the 100 club. It’s easy and fast and there’s NO SIGNATURE REQUIRED.
There are only a few days left until Inauguration day. Please do it now!
Thanks,

We are a voluntary community of individuals who are placing our combined support behind T. Boone Pickens and his efforts to send our government a clear (heard) message that we must reduce our nation’s dependence on foreign oil through the use of all domestic energy alternatives. This site is a place to interact with fellow Pickens Plan supporters, keep up with events and opportunities to help get more involvement.
Please, I ask the first sites you visit to get accurate info and articles to see pretty much what the plan is about and where the plan stands. Some are long, please; take the time to get all the details.
On the home page, click on About The Plan ~ Boone Cam ~ Blog
Our future is focus 1- at this point in time! If not now, When? If not you, WHO?
~~~~~~to quote, Earl Scharff, from RI,~~~~~~~
~~~~~"FOR INFLUENCE, YOU NEED NUMBERS!"~~~~~
Mr. Obama has voiced that eliminating the dependence of foreign oil is a top priority.
[Click here], to enter your zip code and be paired up with members in your area. If you want to be a leader for your area, you can also sign up on that page. If you would rather wait on a leader role, that’s ok we need helpers. An organization cannot be all chiefs.
There is a group for almost everything. The Forums/discussions on this site are many and you’ll probably find something that interests or concerns you. Some are very long and were started months ago. For the ones that concern you, please keep in mind, events are remembered and relayed differently by those commenting, which as we all too well know equals at least three sides to the event.
After you have read the sites I mentioned, if you need anything else to help you, while you help the push, please stop by. I am proud to put my efforts towards this cause.
This is an easy first task I ask of you-
~~~~~~~PLEASE TAKE A PETITION TO WORK TODAY!~~~~~~
I am asking everyone to please take petitions to school or work or wherever you are going today! Everyone wants to get off of foreign oil; we just need to gather their names. WE CAN DO THIS, with everyone’s help. [Click here] for the Petition, then copy or print 4 or 5 and ask everyone to help, better everyone's future.
Again, Welcome; Tom- Welcome wagon crew!
Welcome, pleasure to meet you. Thank you for offering help with CA-28!
Can you help with a small task?
Would you please bring a petition to work, to school, or to your family? We all know 8 people (there are just 8 names per sheet) who want us to get off of foreign oil. We need to build our numbers. It is an easy ask- Boone has done the hard work. Will you do this small thing to help?
Here is the petition:
