Yesterday DFA members spoke out loud and clear. You want action!

We surpassed our initial $10,000 goal -- giving DFA the resources to turn up the heat on Alberto Gonzales. Can you push DFA over the next hurdle with a contribution of $10 so we can reach $20,000 by the end of the day?

John Nichols of The Nation wrote, "The message from DFA is an important one for Congress. At a time when public disappointment in the legislative branch of the federal government is beginning to rival frustration with the executive branch... it is clear that simply letting the president have his way isn't working."

Democracy for America is leading the fight for justice. On the air and on the ground, we are pressuring Congress to do the right thing. Sitting by and watching the Justice Department disintegrate is not a viable option.

And we are making progress!

-- In the Senate, John Kennedy and Sheldon Whitehouse launched further investigations of 2004 voter suppression efforts in Florida. That scheme to disenfranchise African-American voters was led by Karl Rove's assistant Tim Griffin -- who was then named U.S. Attorney.

-- The House Committee on the Judiciary, led by John Conyers, holds more hearings on the U.S. Attorney firings on Thursday.

If George Bush won't fire him, impeaching Alberto Gonzales is the only way to restore integrity and accountability to the Justice Department. Ten dollars to DFA today keeps the momentum going. Contribute now!
