To: Sen. Catherine Cortez Mast (NV-1) and The United States Senate
New Leadership Petition
We the undersigned seek a leader capable of effectively fighting big money power in the United States Senate and do not believe that Senator Harry Reid is that leader. We therefore freely sign and pledge our active support for the following resolution.
Whereas the time for whereases and other parliamentary niceties has long since passed, and
Whereas our Congress is under the thumb of big money courtesy of the United States Supreme Court, and of stale, defeated leadership in the United States Senate, and,
Whereas the result of this defeated leadership is the stalemate big money so cherishes because it perpetuates their unfettered right to pollute, impoverish, outsource, tax dodge, foreclose, unemploy, deploy and otherwise enrich itself at the expense of the rest of us,
Therefore be it resolved that we the undersigned citizens of the United States request that you, the Democratic members of the United States Senate, select from among your number either Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, or any other Senator willing to step forward to seek the office of Democratic Leader, and that you vote for that individual to replace Senator Harry Reid as your leader.

Why is this important?
Our Congress is under the thumb of big money courtesy of the United States Supreme Court, and of stale, defeated leadership in the United States Senate. The result of this defeated leadership is the stalemate big money so cherishes because it perpetuates their unfettered right to pollute, impoverish, outsource, tax dodge, foreclose, unemploy, deploy and otherwise enrich itself at the expense of the rest of us,
