Stop Tom DeLay. Sign the petition.

Representative Tom DeLay of Texas needs to be stopped.

He is at the center of machine that launders corporate influence in our political process. And now his machine is at the center of investigations by a grand jury in Texas and the House Ethics Committee in Washington into ethics violations and criminal activity. But the DeLay racket reaches even into the Ethics Committee itself. We must act now to make sure the job gets done right.

Tom DeLay has done more than any other person to construct a system where our representatives sell the privilege of writing legislation to the highest bidder. His contempt for his opponents and win-at-all-costs approach pollute our political life -- and may have broken the law. Join the call for a proper investigation of Tom DeLay!

Today we ask the House Ethics Committee in Washington to appoint an outside counsel to lead the investigation of Tom DeLay. We will deliver your petition to the House Ethics Committee. And we will take your messages to Texas to give DeLay's constituents your thoughts about the man they will have the chance to vote out of office in November.

"I fully support an Ethics probe into DeLay's conduct, fundraising and influence-peddling for as far back as the statute of limitations allows. Any malfeasance must be followed up by criminal prosecution."

...I talked about how he tried to gerrymander the districts in my state of Colorado so it would work to the Republicans advantage. And kept fighting this even though our state supreme court said no, saying that he had no respect for the law and was willing to cheat to get his way.

..even though DeLay is a NATIONAL problem.
